LOOP Descriptor: Local Optimal Oriented Pattern [PDF]
IEEE Signal Processing Letters, 25(5): 635-639, 2018, 2017 This letter introduces the LOOP binary descriptor (local optimal oriented pattern) that encodes rotation invariance into the main formulation itself. This makes any post processing stage for rotation invariance redundant and improves on both accuracy and time complexity.

Variation in the genitalia of the butterfly Maniola jurtina (Lepidoptera: Satyrinae) [PDF]
Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 1993 The genilalia of animals, particularly insects, are extremely useful taxonomic characters, for they are highly conserved within species yet generally diverge rapidly during specialion: often the only reliable means of separating sibling species is via the morphology of the genilalia.

Physical and Behavioral Adaptations to Prevent Overheating of the Living Wings of Butterflies [PDF]
, 2020 The wings of Lepidoptera contain a matrix of living cells whose function requires appropriate temperatures. However, given their small thermal capacity, wings can overheat rapidly in the sun. Here we analyze butterfly wings across a wide range of simulated environmental conditions, and find that regions containing living cells are maintained at cooler ...
