A Computational Model of the Short-Cut Rule for 2D Shape Decomposition [PDF]
We propose a new 2D shape decomposition method based on the short-cut rule. The short-cut rule originates from cognition research, and states that the human visual system prefers to partition an object into parts using the shortest possible cuts.

A tongue‐like bioactuator is developed using orthogonally aligned cultured skeletal muscle tissues. By applying directional electrical stimulation of varying strengths, the actuator achieves jointless, multidirectional movements. The device features a fully soft, skeleton‐free design, enabling biomimetic deformation and functional actuation, and offers

Abstract Last year, we challenged the view that large‐bodied theropod dinosaurs such as Tyrannosaurus rex resembled primates in cognition and behavior, a proposition made by Herculano‐Houzel in 2023. More recently, Jensen et al. have criticized our work on this topic, raising methodological and conceptual issues.
