Highly Configurable Evolutionary Multi‐Objective Optimisation and Application in UAV Path Planning

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multi‐objective optimisation is crucial in engineering and real‐world decision‐making. Although traditional decomposition‐based approaches such as MOEA/D yield reasonable results, they depend heavily on expert knowledge. Existing MetaBBO approaches partially alleviate this reliance, however, they offer limited configurability and lack real ...

Large language model‐enhanced deep reinforcement learning for voltage control in active distribution networks

Energy Conversion and Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract As active distribution networks (ADNs) become increasingly saturated with intermittent renewable energy sources, maintaining voltage within safe operational limits has become a critical and complex task, requiring advanced control methods beyond traditional rule‐based approaches.

Adaptive hidden Markov model estimation and applications [PDF]

, 1998
Initially introduced in the late 1960's and early 1970's, hidden Markov models (HMMs) have become increasingly popular in the last decade. The major reason for the increasing popularity of HMMs has been the richness of the model class and the power of ...

Reproductive success under constraints: Does increased maternal activity during lactation offset poor habitat and individual quality in an income breeder?

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Human‐induced environmental modifications may alter forage access and, hence, how animals manage energy trade‐offs during critical periods. Reproduction, especially lactation, is the most energetically costly process for female mammals.

Mainland diversification and recent island lineages in the reduviid genus Tapirocoris: an integrative taxonomic framework with four new species

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Using an integrative taxonomic framework that combines COI DNA barcodes, geometric morphometrics and phylogeography, we revise the assassin bug genus Tapirocoris and recover seven well‐supported species, including four newly described cryptic species.

The Evolution of Male Weapons Is Associated with the Type of Breeding Site in a Clade of Neotropical Frogs

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Male weaponry evolution is often linked to male–male competition, but its relationship with breeding site type remains unclear. Using Leptodactylinae frogs, we found a macroevolutionary correlation between breeding site type and weapon evolution. Also, gains and losses of weapons occurred more frequently in exposed‐breeding sites, an unexpected finding.

Efficient Masked Autoencoder for Birdsong Representation with Applications on Wild Bird Species Classification

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Research on mosquito feeding preferences and the malaria parasites they transmit is essential for understanding the interactions between hosts, vectors, and parasites. In this study, vertebrate hosts were identified in 72 mosquitoes. Most blood meals (58.7%) came from birds, representing 25 species, while 40.0% came from mammals (13 species), and 1.3 ...

The natural history of periodontal disease—Part 2: In populations with access to dental care: The Studies of Health in Pomerania (SHIP)

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract In this descriptive analysis of the 21‐year follow‐up data from the SHIP‐START cohort and the 7‐year follow‐up data from the SHIP‐TREND cohort, we report the progression of clinical attachment levels (CAL), age effects on CAL change, and a detailed description of CAL progression and remission. At baseline, 4307 and 4420 persons participated in

Chromosome‐Level Genome Assembly of Strauchbufo raddei and Multi‐Omic Insights Into Drought Adaptation

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding how amphibians adapt to terrestrial and arid environments is important for elucidating vertebrate terrestrialization. In this study, we present the first chromosome‐level, high‐quality genome assembly of Strauchbufo raddei, constructed using PacBio HiFi long‐read sequencing and Hi‐C scaffolding. The assembled genome is 4.47 Gb in
