The Future of Research in Cognitive Robotics: Foundation Models or Developmental Cognitive Models?

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Research in cognitive robotics founded on principles of developmental psychology and enactive cognitive science would yield what we seek in autonomous robots: the ability to perceive its environment, learn from experience, anticipate the outcome of events, act to pursue goals, and adapt to changing circumstances without resorting to training with ...

Research Quality Assessment and Planning Journals. The Italian Perspective.

Italian Journal of Planning Practice, 2014
Assessment of research products is a crucial issue for universities and research institutions faced with internationalization and competition. Disciplines are reacting differently to this challenge, and planning, in its various forms – from urban design ...

Continual Learning for Multimodal Data Fusion of a Soft Gripper

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Models trained on a single data modality often struggle to generalize when exposed to a different modality. This work introduces a continual learning algorithm capable of incrementally learning different data modalities by leveraging both class‐incremental and domain‐incremental learning scenarios in an artificial environment where labeled data is ...

15 Years Of Strategic Planning in Italian Cities: Which Influences on Ordinary Spatial Planning and Planning Styles? [PDF]

, 2013
Almost fifteen years have passed since the first experiments of spatial planning have been launched in Italy; almost 70 since when the national planning law has been adopted, defining goals, objectives, forms of spatial planning.

Prior Expectations Bias Confidence Judgments Through Parietal Alpha‐Band Modulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Humans possess the metacognitive ability to estimate the likely accuracy of their own decisions through confidence judgments. Yet, whether prior information shapes confidence and the neural mechanisms mediating such influence, remain to be determined.

Agroforestry systems in Italian urban planning

Agroforestry Systems
Abstract Urban and Peri-urban Agroforestry (UPAF) is an emerging urban practice in Italy that can contribute to promoting the resilience of cities to climate change effects while complementing the set of ecosystem services provided by urban agriculture and urban forestry.

Mitochondrial Dysfunction Unravels the Potential Molecular Link Between Night Shift Work‐Related Circadian Disruption and Elevated Blood Pressure in Human and Mouse Models

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This diagram illustrates that night shift work disrupts circadian clock genes (like CLOCK, BMAL1) in both humans and mice. This disruption leads to mitochondrial dysfunction (imbalanced fusion/fission proteins) and increased oxidative stress, which is identified as the primary mechanism ultimately causing elevated blood pressure.
