A Model Based Systems Engineering Framework for Digital Twins in Medical Device Innovation

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Medical device development remains constrained by development processes centered largely in the physical domain. These methods limited early understanding of system behavior and prolonged timelines relative to other innovation pathways. Such limitations increase prototype cycle duration and the number of iterations required to resolve design ...

Theia: An end‐to‐end edge‐AI mobile framework for high‐throughput field phenotyping and on‐device geometric morphometrics

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Geometric morphometrics (GM) is widely used to study phenotypic variation in ecological and evolutionary research, but the throughput of manual landmark digitization limits how large morphometric datasets can practically become, especially in field studies that would benefit from rapid on‐site feedback.

Lithic analysis in African archaeology: Advances and key themes

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Stone artifacts (lithics) preserve for extended periods; thus they are key evidence for probing the evolution of human technological behaviors. Africa boasts the oldest record of stone artifacts, spanning 3.3 Ma, rare instances of ethnographic stone tool‐making, and stone tool archives from diverse ecological settings, making it an anchor for ...
