Impact of Packaging and Recycling Systems on Material Recirculation: A Stage‐Decomposition Model

Packaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.
A system‐level view emerges from decomposing recycling into four stages (participation, collection, sorting and process yield), diagnosing constraints and targeting interventions. Cumulative equivalent uses (CEUs) quantify long‐term retention, revealing marginal improvements at high baselines generate disproportionately larger gains than low‐baseline ...

Quantization-Based Image Watermarking by Using a Normalization Scheme in the Wavelet Domain

Information, 2018
To improve the invisibility and robustness of quantization-based image watermarking algorithms, we developed an improved quantization image watermarking method based on the wavelet transform and normalization strategy used in this study.

DrLS: Distortion‐Resistant Lossless Steganography via Colour Depth Interpolation

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The lossless data steganography is to hide a certain amount of information into a container image. Previous lossless steganography methods fail to strike a balance between capacity, imperceptibility, accuracy, and robustness, commonly vulnerable to distortion on container images.

The Coloniality of Data: Police Databases and the Rationalization of Surveillance from Colonial Vietnam to the Modern Carceral State

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tracing the early adoption of computer gang databases by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and the Los Angeles Police Department in the 1980s to the deployment of computationally‐assisted surveillance during the Vietnam War, this paper uses a genealogical approach to compare surveillance technologies developed across the arc of ...

A “Tech First” Approach to Foreign Policy? The Three Meanings of Tech Diplomacy

Global Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Scholars have recently argued that international politics is plagued by instability as the world rapidly transitions from one crisis to another. This state of “Permacrisis,” or permanent crises between states, is driven by technological innovations which create new kinds of crises and drive competitions between adversarial states.

A Framework for Evaluating Global AI Governance Initiatives

Global Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efforts to develop global governance initiatives for artificial intelligence (AI) have increased significantly in recent years. However, these initiatives have generally had a limited impact due to their vagueness, lack of authority and repetition.
