Brain‐Mimetic Mapless Navigation Framework Integrating Visual Streams and Entorhinal‐Hippocampal‐Prefrontal Circuits

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient autonomous navigation in complex and unstructured environments without pre‐existing maps remains a significant challenge for mobile robotics. Drawing inspiration from rodent neural architectures, this study proposes a brain‐mimetic mapless navigation framework for mobile robots.

Beyond thermoregulation: Active behavioural regulation of ultraviolet light exposure by a free‐ranging lizard

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study provides a clear demonstration of active ultraviolet (UV) regulation in free‐ranging lizards and supports that microhabitat choice likely constrains UV regulation more than thermoregulation. Overall, it serves to establish UV as a parallel regulatory axis of physiological homeostasis and expand the range of testable hypotheses in animal ...

READING HOUSING AS AN URBAN INFRASTRUCTURE PATTERNING THE ‘WHORE STIGMA’

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In this article, I conceptualize housing as an urban infrastructure enabling the reproduction, exploitation, circulation and emplacement of the ‘whore stigma’. To this end, I engage with infrastructural scholarship, particularly the emerging field of infrastructural housing studies, and situate it in dialogue with critical perspectives on ...

AN URBAN MARKETPLACE UNDER PRESSURE: The Steady Gentrification Process of Porta Palazzo (Turin) Through the Eyes of Market Sellers and Policy Makers

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Marketplaces, crucial sites for low‐income populations as sources of affordable goods and social interaction, are at a critical juncture. They are experiencing decline due to the rise of shopping centres and neglect by public authorities, while at the same time being rediscovered as tourist attractions, sources of profit and tools for urban ...
