Affinification: A Fine Approximation of Deformations

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We introduce affinification, a novel method for accelerating physics‐based animation of elastic solids. During a time‐dependent simulation, our method automatically partitions the space into affine and elastic regions depending on the deformation.

Mini-EUSO on Board the International Space Station: Mission Status and Results

open access: yesInstruments
The telescope Mini-EUSO has been observing, since 2019, the Earth in the ultraviolet band (290–430 nm) through a nadir-facing UV-transparent window in the Russian Zvezda module of the International Space Station. The instrument has a square field of view

Double-Station Automatic Video Observation of the Meteors

open access: yesAdvances in Astronomy, 2010
The double station observation of the meteors by means of sensitive image intensifier technique started at the Ondrejov Observatory 10 years ago. The sensitivity of such instrumentation allows detection of the meteors down to masses of fractions of gram.

Authoring Terrestrial Planets with Diffusion Models

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract To support the design and subsequent generation of terrestrial planets for use in the creative media, we propose a solution that employs a generative model trained on satellite data from planetary bodies with a defined solid surface, such as the Earth and Mars.

Role of Large Language Model—Artificial Intelligence in Enhancing Communication Skills in Undergraduate Oral Healthcare Students

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming dental education (DE) by advancing teaching strategies, clinical training, and patient care. Its integration allows for personalized learning experiences and realistic simulations, and equips students with the competencies required to deliver high‐quality oral healthcare in a digital ...

Triple Oxygen Isotope Compositions of Isotopic Reference Waters: Implications for VSMOW‐Scale and VSMOW–SLAP‐Scale Δ′17O Calibration

open access: yesGeostandards and Geoanalytical Research, EarlyView.
Key Points Triple oxygen isotope ratios of two primary (VSMOW, SLAP) and twelve secondary water isotopic reference materials were precisely measured using BrF5 fluorination‐IRMS. The measured Δ'17OVSMOW value for SLAP (34 ± 6 per meg) demonstrates that VSMOW‐SLAP normalisation ensures interlaboratory comparability, but introduces systematic offsets for

Finetuning Pre‐Trained Language Models for Automatic Assessment of English‐Chinese Interpreting

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent years have seen growing interest in leveraging pre‐trained language models (PLMs) for automatic assessment of spoken‐language performance. Contributing to this emerging line of work, the present study offers the first attempt to finetune two PLMs, GTE‐multilingual and mmBERT, for assessing English‐Chinese interpreting, using over 1700 ...

Multidimensional Militarisation, Evidence From Mexico's War on Drugs

open access: yesInternational Social Science Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article documents different dimensions of militarisation observed in Mexico since the start of the war on drugs. It argues that militarisation is a multidirectional phenomenon that is characterised by rationales that justify the use of illegal means to address complex issues, promising expediency and efficiency but rarely delivering on it.
