A Lightweight Deep Neural Network for Individual Leopard Identification: Supporting Movement Ecology in the Taihang Mountains of Henan

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We developed LeoNet, a lightweight deep learning model for leopard individual identification. It achieved 97.42% accuracy and was robust to age‐related pattern changes and unfamiliar individuals. Applied to camera‐trap data from the Taihang Mountains, LeoNet identified 41 wild North China leopards and generated individual‐level records to support ...

Behavior‐Based Rodent Management: Mechanisms, Challenges, and Opportunities

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Management of rodent pests often relies upon their decisions about whether or not to interact with management tools such as baits and traps. These decisions are shaped by behavioral motivations that can vary with environmental context, over time, and between individuals, which provide both challenges and opportunities for control.

Beyond Manoeuvre Theory for European Defence

Global Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article contributes to the debate about European defence in the light of the Russo‐Ukraine war and growing doubts about US commitment to Europe. It argues that Europeans need to fundamentally relearn the ability to imagine military strategy from a European viewpoint.

Sailing Through Time: Building Pacific Maritime Resilience

Global Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines the Pacific Blue Shipping Partnership (PBSP), an ambitious initiative aimed at decarbonising maritime transport across Oceania. The study explores the cultural, historical and technological aspects of wind‐propelled shipping in the Pacific.

How Do Forward‐Looking Estimates of Credit Losses Affect the Judgments of Financial Statement Users? Comment les estimations prospectives des pertes sur créances influencent‐elles les jugements des utilisateurs des états financiers?

Contemporary Accounting Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Financial accounting standard setters recently changed the accounting for estimates involving credit risk. The change shifted the accounting from an incurred‐loss model (ILM), which is based on credit‐risk conditions that exist at the time of the estimate, to a model based on expected credit losses over the life of the asset in question (ELM),

Theia: An end‐to‐end edge‐AI mobile framework for high‐throughput field phenotyping and on‐device geometric morphometrics

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Geometric morphometrics (GM) is widely used to study phenotypic variation in ecological and evolutionary research, but the throughput of manual landmark digitization limits how large morphometric datasets can practically become, especially in field studies that would benefit from rapid on‐site feedback.
