Collaborative Energy-Efficient Routing Protocol for Sustainable Communication in 5G/6G Wireless Sensor Networks

IEEE Open Journal of the Communications Society, 2023
One of the main problems with WSNs is that most sensor nodes in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are motorized by energy-constrained, which significantly affects the system’s effectiveness, dependability, and lifespan.

Optimal deep learning activity recognition pipeline using animal bio‐logging data

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 8, Page 2309-2329, August 2026.
Abstract Animal activity recognition using supervised machine learning on bio‐logging data has revolutionized behavioural studies on wildlife and livestock over the past decade. These studies' analytic pipelines differ substantially though, being based on various sensors, features, algorithms and hyperparameter values, which has caused suboptimal or ...

Cadaveric Study of the Juvenile Grey Heron's (Ardea cinerea) Nasal Cavity and Associated Structures Through Computed Tomography and Anatomical Sections

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
This study provides the first comprehensive anatomical and CT characterization of the nasal cavity of the grey heron, enabling the identification of its major components and spatial organization. Correlative evaluation of multiplanar CT images with anatomical sections proved highly effective for delineating landmarks, offering a reference for clinical ...

Multi-Strategy Boosted Fick’s Law Algorithm for Engineering Optimization Problems and Parameter Estimation

Biomimetics
To address the shortcomings of the recently proposed Fick’s Law Algorithm, which is prone to local convergence and poor convergence efficiency, we propose a multi-strategy improved Fick’s Law Algorithm (FLAS).

A Novel Deep Learning Model for High‐Latitude Ionospheric Convection Using SuperDARN Data

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Plasma convection at high latitudes is a key manifestation of magnetosphere–ionosphere coupling and serves as a critical indicator of space weather conditions. The Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN) provides essential data on ionospheric convection.

Update of the risk assessment on emerging and novel brominated flame retardants in food

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The European Commission asked EFSA to update its 2012 risk assessment on Emerging and Novel brominated flame retardants (BFRs) in food. Since the previous Opinion, further information was collected for a total of 27 BFRs. The CONTAM Panel concluded that TDBPP, DBPNG and TBNPA are considered genotoxic and carcinogenic.
