Abstract This article offers new perspectives on the relationship between elementary teaching, scientific expertise and the professionalization of the human sciences. Previous scholarship has demonstrated the ready existence of ‘amateur’ science societies in the nineteenth century where cross‐class exchanges were common.

The intersective Hough transform for geophysical applications
La transformada de Hough es una herramienta ampliamente utilizada para identificación de alineamientos, pero el método de votación utilizado usualmente en esta transformada presenta serios problemas cuando las alineaciones no son exactas.

Survey on differential estimators for 3d point clouds
Abstract Recent advancements in 3D scanning technologies, including LiDAR and photogrammetry, have enabled the precise digital replication of real‐world objects. These methods are widely used in fields such as GIS, robotics, and cultural heritage. However, the point clouds generated by such scans are often noisy and unstructured, posing challenges for ...

Leadership and Accountability in Faith‐Based Institutions: Evidence From UK Mosques
ABSTRACT This study investigates accountability in religious institutions on the basis of evidence obtained from interviews with relevant parties in UK mosques. We mobilize prior theoretical contention regarding servant leadership and constraints on personal accountability to expose perceptions of seriously deficient discharge outcomes.

ABSTRACT Breast cancer is still a serious problem in the world arena, where its early and prompt detection is the most important factor in improving patient prognosis and survival. The use of traditional diagnostic techniques, such as imaging (e.g., mammography and ultrasound) and subsequent histopathological examination, is the mainstay, which ...

Abstract The humanitarian sector has been challenging power relationships between international and local actors for decades, attempting to move towards a mode of operation where local knowledge and capacity are central. The sector is thus striving to promote a more inclusive approach to aid delivery through localisation.

Repelled Point Processes With Application to Numerical Integration
ABSTRACT We look at Monte Carlo numerical integration from a stochastic geometry point of view. While crude Monte Carlo estimators relate to linear statistics of a homogeneous Poisson point process (PPP), linear statistics of more regularly spread point processes can yield unbiased estimators with faster‐decaying variance, and thus lower integration ...

Localization of multiple underwater sources with cyclic Hough transform based on multi-array systems [PDF]
A multi-source localization approach is proposed based on the correct association of the line of bearings (LOBs) with multi-array systems. The LOBs are detected and extracted by applying the subband peak energy detection to the steered response power of ...

Sleep‐trackers in the wild: A faceted taxonomy for information and interaction design
Abstract Consumer‐grade sleep‐tracking technologies (CSTs) have brought sleep into everyday data practices, reframing it from a clinical concern into a site of personal optimization and reflection. Yet existing taxonomies of sleep‐tracking often medicalize users and overlook the complexity of sleep‐tracking technologies. This paper presents SleepTax, a
