A general method for detection and segmentation of terrestrial arthropods in images

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Automated monitoring of insects and other arthropods is vital for ecological research and conservation; yet current image recognition tools often lack generalizability across diverse imaging conditions and struggle with varying specimen sizes. This limits their practical utility and wide adoption by ecologists.

Automated quantification of fine root production from minirhizotron image time series

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant root growth accounts for a major part of the net primary production in grassland and forest ecosystems and influences the global carbon and nutrient cycles. Measuring the production of roots is inherently difficult, prone to inconsistencies and time‐consuming. Notably, there are currently no methods yet to automate this task.

Axial length, myopia progression, and myopic maculopathy in Stickler syndrome

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose We lack knowledge on the potentially progressive nature of and the prevalence of complications to myopia as a characteristic trait of Stickler syndrome. Methods This cross‐sectional study combines ophthalmic examination and medical record data on Danish patients with genetically confirmed Stickler syndrome type 1 (COL2A1) and type 2 ...

A tutorial on Bayesian model averaging for exponential random graph models

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The use of exponential random graph models (ERGMs) is becoming prevalent in psychology due to their ability to explain and predict the formation of edges between vertices in a network. Valid inference with ERGMs requires correctly specifying endogenous and exogenous effects as network statistics, guided by theory, to represent the network ...

Multi‐angle, cross‐domain fusion strategy enhances automated insect identification and hierarchical categorization: a case study on assassin bugs (Hemiptera: Reduviidae)

open access: yesCladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Automated insect identification systems hold significant value for biodiversity monitoring, pest management, citizen science initiatives and systematic studies, particularly in an era of declining expertise in insect taxonomy. However, current deep learning approaches often rely on standardized specimen photos from limited‐angles and ...

Artificial Intelligence in the Detection of Clinically Negotiable Second Mesio‐Buccal Canals in Periapical Images of Maxillary Molars

open access: yesInternational Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to aid clinicians in assessing case difficulty in endodontics. The objectives of this study were to develop and validate deep learning models for the detection of clinically negotiable MB2 canals in periapical images of maxillary first and second molars, and to compare the performance of AI ...

A Tutorial on Conducting and Interpreting a Bayesian Independent T‐Test Using Open‐Source Software

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Nursing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To demonstrate a worked‐out example of a Bayesian independent t‐test using open‐source software, simulated data, a hypothetical nurse education intervention and a randomised controlled study design. This tutorial explains relevant Bayesian concepts and highlights literature that provides statistically principled justifications for ...

Inshore marine coastal zone migration patterns in Atlantic salmon post‐smolts emigrating from eight rivers in north‐east Scotland

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar, migrate through multiple habitat types, each having the potential to impact differently upon migration success. The inshore marine coastal zone is arguably disproportionately impacted by potential stressors on populations.
