The costs of extra‐pair behaviours in birds
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Extra‐pair behaviours – reproductive behaviours, including those related to copulation and paternity of offspring, amongst animals outside of a social pair bond – have long intrigued behavioural ecologists, particularly from the female animal's perspective.

The Degradation of Access‐Based Business Models: Customer Misbehavior and Shared Mobility
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Access‐based services are considered one of the strategies to embed sustainability in business models. Yet, because the evolution of these business models has been overlooked, we do not know whether their promise to create triple value is sustained.

A Framework of Vertebra Segmentation Using the Active Shape Model-Based Approach
International Journal of Biomedical Imaging, 2011 We propose a medical image segmentation approach based on the Active Shape Model theory. We apply this method for cervical vertebra detection. The main advantage of this approach is the application of a statistical model created after a training stage ...

, 2018 ALMA surveys of nearby star-forming regions have shown that the dust mass in the disk is correlated with the stellar mass, but with a large scatter. This scatter could indicate either different evolutionary paths of disks or different initial conditions ...

Behavioral Sciences &the Law, EarlyView.ABSTRACT As correctional jurisdictions and risk instrument developers look to optimize scoring for specific population needs, an open question remains ‐ which method is optimal. Popular scoring methods range from manual simple scoring approaches (e.g., Burgess) to more complex machine learning algorithms (e.g., random forests).

A novel approach to recognition of the detected moving objects in non-stationary background using heuristics and colour measurements : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Engineering at Massey University, Albany, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2017 Computer vision has become a growing area of research which involves two fundamental steps, object detection and object recognition. These two steps have been implemented in real world scenarios such as video surveillance systems, traffic cameras for ...

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In this paper we describe a technique to make a confined environment of variable stiffness that is suitable for high‐resolution live‐cell imaging. This versatile and adaptable technique enables cell confinement between soft elastic surfaces made from polyacrylamide gels.
