Global evidence and research gaps on indoor air quality in healthcare facilities

Discover Environment
Indoor air quality (IAQ) is a critical determinant of clinical safety and infection control in healthcare facilities, where vulnerable populations exhibit greater susceptibility to indoor environmental conditions.

Hexapod Locomotion Across Structured and Unstructured Terrains: A Data‐Driven Review of Modeling, Control, and Validation

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The design of a hexapod is complex and requires integration between kinematic models, control systems, and sensing. Existing literature has reviewed these sub‐systems in isolation. Since 2021, there has been no review of the field despite significant advancements in soft soil, lunar traversal, and artificial intelligence.

Indoor UAV for Nuclear Investigation: Experimental Qualification and Field Feedback

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Indoor Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have recently gained interest for inspection and investigation tasks in hazardous environments. In the nuclear field, indoor UAVs offer promising capabilities to reduce workers' exposure to ionizing radiation while accessing confined or elevated areas.

A Comparison of Mobile Laser Scanning Data Acquisition Methods in Closed Forest, Open Woodland and Sub‐Alpine Woodland Ecosystems

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that the mobile laser scanning (MLS) sampling density required to reliably characterise vegetation structure increases with a site's structural complexity. Applying a five‐level acquisition framework across open woodland, closed forest and sub‐alpine woodland ecosystems, we found that longer scanning paths increased the ...

FEWT: Frequency‐Enhanced Wavelet‐Based Transformer for Multimodal Wheeled Bimanual Manipulation

SmartBot, EarlyView.
An embodied mobile bimanual robot learns dexterous manipulation skills through imitation learning with multimodal perception. The integration of vision, proprioception, and tactile sensing establishes a comprehensive perception–action loop, enabling the robot to continuously understand, interact with, and adapt to complex physical environments.

IMU integration for ATRIAS [PDF]

An Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) is an important part of a freestanding bipedal robot's state estimation system. IMUs return translational accelerations and rotational velocities, which must be numerically integrated to obtain a robot's orientation ...

TriadAuth: Continuous Authentication Through Structured GUI Sequence Modelling With Drift Adaptation and Modality‐Aware Explanations

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Continuous authentication (CA) systems based on behavioural biometrics are increasingly deployed in zero‐trust architectures, yet their performance degrades over time due to natural behavioural drift arising from device changes, fatigue and evolving habits.

The Pathological Roles of Cationic Amino Acid Transporters (CATs) in Cancer

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
CAT family transporters (SLC7A1–SLC7A4) coordinate arginine allocation within the tumor microenvironment, thereby regulating cancer metabolism, mTORC1 signaling, immune responses, and metastatic progression. Emerging evidence supports context‐dependent roles for SLC7A1–SLC7A3, whereas the physiological and pathological functions of SLC7A4 remain poorly

NePO: Neural Point Octrees for Large‐Scale Novel View Synthesis

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We introduce Neural Point Octrees (NePOs), a scalable radiance field representation that organises point clouds hierarchically for efficient optimisation and rendering of large scale scenes. NePOs enable level of detail selection, joint refinement of appearance and camera poses, and real‐time rendering of hundreds of millions of points.
