Advanced Dental Composite Technology via Bisilanized Dual‐Action Nanofillers for Biofilm Control

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A multimodal research strategy has led to the development of an innovative resin‐based composite (RBC) with dual antibacterial action. The S_CM‐RBC formula showed strong antibiofilm activity, excellent mechanical strength, and biosafety. It effectively controlled oral bacteria in prevention of caries recurrence, and maintained pulp health in a rat ...

Seeing Through the Face: Robust Facial Diagnosis Enhanced by Landmark Detection and Pose Normalization

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study proposes a robust, generalizable new approach for facial type diagnosis. Based on landmark detection and pose normalization, a 94.7% diagnostic accuracy is achieved by Combined Heatmap Regression and Coordinate Regression network. This research makes the AI‐generated preliminary diagnosis more interpretable and reducing the impact of ...

VAE+DDPG: An Attention‐Enhanced Variational Autoencoder for Deep Reinforcement Learning‐Based Autonomous Navigation in Low‐Light Environments

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Variational Autoencoder+Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient addresses low‐light failures of infrared depth sensing for indoor robot navigation. Stage 1 pretrains an attention‐enhanced Variational Autoencoder (Convolutional Block Attention Module+Feature Pyramid Network) to map dark depth frames to a well‐lit reconstruction, yielding a 128‐D latent code ...

Choice experiments on land managers' participation in environmental programs: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of estimate validity

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Discrete choice experiments are increasingly being used to estimate land managers' willingness to accept participation in incentive‐based environmental programs. This is a specific application of discrete choice experiments: the estimation of willingness to accept for a private good (program participation) where respondents have to make trade ...
