Does Contract Farming Reduce Pesticide Use? Panel Data Evidence From Smallholder Farmers in China

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The inappropriate and excessive use of pesticides poses a major threat to human and ecosystem health in the agri‐food sector. While existing studies have examined the potential of contract farming to address this issue, most have focused on large‐scale farms and relied on small or transactional datasets, often leaving the role of crop‐specific

Mental and gestural simulation of manner-in-verb-encoded, no-manner-encoded, and manner-in-adverb-encoded constructional patterns

open access: yesPoznan Studies in Contemporary Linguistics
Abstract We conducted two studies to examine gestures (iconic/metaphoric, pointing, beat) that co-occurred with three types of constructional patterns (manner-in-verb-encoded, no-manner-encoded, manner-in-adverb-encoded). In Study 1, we analyzed gestures produced by speakers in a set of YouTube videos. In Study 2, we analyzed gestures

How Birds Fly Differently Across Languages?—Manner Salience of Events in English and Chinese

open access: yesSAGE Open
The portrayal of motion events across languages has been extensively explored, typically focusing on human locomotion. This study, however, diverges from the norm by examining the representation of motion events associated with avian species.

What particle verbs have to do with grammatical aspect in early child english [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The current study investigates the relation between aspect and particle verbs in the acquisition of English. Its purpose is to determine whether children associate telicity, as argued in previous studies, or rather perfectivity, which entails completion ...

Sports Activity Recognition Using Textile‐Based Sensor Fusion and Complex‐Valued Residual Convolutional Neural Networks

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Motion artifacts in electrocardiographic signals, conventionally dismissed as noise, are shown to encode discriminative activity information. A smart t‐shirt fusing textile strain sensors with textile ECG electrodes, processed through a complex‐valued residual network, recognizes 12 sport activities.

From Instruction to Inheritance: Scaling Robot Learning Through Knowledge Circulation

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Robot learning moves from one‐way instruction toward knowledge circulation. Humans teach robots, robots teach one another, and robots share acquired skills with humans. This perspective connects teaching, embodiment, and learning architectures to explore how knowledge is inherited, adapted, and enriched across agents, opening a path toward scalable ...

Beyond the Camera: Epidermal Sensor Platforms for Intelligent Facial Expression Recognition and Interactive Human Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Skin‐conformal epidermal sensors enable camera‐free intelligent facial monitoring by converting facial deformation and muscle activity into electrical signals through piezoresistive, capacitive, electrophysiologic, and self‐powered mechanisms. Coupled with artificial intelligence (AI), these platforms support facial expression recognition, human ...
