Medusa [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 24th annual ACM symposium on User interface software and technology, 2011
We present Medusa, a proximity-aware multi-touch tabletop. Medusa uses 138 inexpensive proximity sensors to: detect a user's presence and location, determine body and arm locations, distinguish between the right and left arms, and map touch point to specific users and specific hands. Our tracking algorithms and hardware designs are described. Exploring

A Computer Vision‐Based Methodology to Estimate Fruit Colour Diversity in Ornamental Pepper (Capsicum spp.)

open access: yesPlant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fruit colour diversity within different ripening stages confers ornamental value for pepper plants. Using images can be helpful in analysing the fruit colour‐related genetic diversity and enable selecting accessions for ornamental purposes by avoiding subjectiveness.

Validation of eDNA as a viable method of detection for dangerous cubozoan jellyfish

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, 2021
Stings from certain species of cubozoan jellyfish are dangerous to humans and their seasonal presence in tropical marine waters poses a significant risk to coastal communities.

Seed transfer models applied to commercial germplasms reveal trait divergence from wildland populations of a restoration grass species

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Due to the prevalence of local adaptation in plants, the provenance of seed sources can impact plant community restoration outcomes. Yet programs developing commercial germplasm releases often overlook local adaptation as a development criterion, leading to the selection of traits that may not support restoration success.

Diversity and life-cycle analysis of Pacific Ocean zooplankton by videomicroscopy and DNA barcoding: Hydrozoa.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Most, but not all cnidarian species in the class Hydrozoa have a life cycle in which a colonial, asexually reproducing hydroid phase alternates with a free-swimming, sexually reproducing medusa phase. They are not well known, in part because many of them

Law and Infrastructure: Reliability, Automation Transition, and Irregularities of “U‐Space”

open access: yesRegulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The European Union (EU) is making regulatory efforts to allow for the safe integration of drones into civilian airspace through automated means. Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/664 concerning unmanned traffic management (a system referred to as “U‐Space”) furthers that commitment. Accordingly, drone operators must avail themselves

Do auditory deviants evoke cortical state changes under anaesthesia? A proof‐of‐concept study

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Context‐dependent sensory processing within the predictive coding framework relies on detecting mismatches between incoming stimuli and internal predictive models. Sensory deviants elicit prediction errors, seen as enhanced neural responses, that update these models and influence attention and behaviour.

Biomass of scyphozoan jellyfish, and its spatial association with 0-group fish in the Barents Sea. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
An 0-group fish survey is conducted annually in the Barents Sea in order to estimate fish population abundance. Data on jellyfish by-catch have been recorded since 1980, although this dataset has never been analysed.

Environmental DNA Reveals Diverse and Depth‐Stratified Biodiversity in East Indian Ocean Submarine Canyons

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Environmental DNA metabarcoding reveals diverse animal communities across Cape Range and Cloates submarine canyons off Western Australia. Two assays detected 234 species spanning 125 families across 11 phyla, highlighting canyon‐specific assemblages and demonstrating the value of eDNA for establishing biodiversity baselines in remote and poorly ...

Holobiont nitrogen control and its potential for eutrophication resistance in an obligate photosymbiotic jellyfish

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2021
Background Marine holobionts depend on microbial members for health and nutrient cycling. This is particularly evident in cnidarian-algae symbioses that facilitate energy and nutrient acquisition.
