Step2Motion: Locomotion Reconstruction from Pressure Sensing Insoles
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Human motion is fundamentally driven by continuous physical interaction with the environment. Whether walking, running, or simply standing, the forces exchanged between our feet and the ground provide crucial insights for understanding and reconstructing human movement. Recent advances in wearable insole devices offer a compelling solution for

Individualized Pathfinding in Rugged Open Terrains Using Semantic Navigation Meshes
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.We introduce semantic navigation meshes for complex outdoor terrains, partitioning space into regions with coherent semantic properties like slope or vegetation density. The resulting graphs enable efficient pathfinding with agent‐specific, parameterized cost functions without precomputation, accelerating search while maintaining path quality close to ...

Innovation and the great divergence
The Economic History Review, EarlyView.Abstract Recent historical national accounting data show that the timing of the Great Divergence hinges on the different trends in north‐west Europe and the Yangzi Delta region of China. Although north‐west Europe only pulled ahead of the Yangzi Delta after 1700, both the positive trend of GDP per capita in north‐west Europe after 1700 and the negative

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.Using high‐speed video, we quantify suction‐feeding variability in hybrids of Andrias japonicus × A. cf. davidianus. Body condition and attack geometry modulate prey kinematics, revealing a flexible suction mechanism with ecological and conservation implications. Abstract Hybridisation between Andrias japonicus and A. cf. davidianus lineages is a major
