Refined Safety Distance Measurement of Heavy Construction Machinery Near Electricity Operation Based on Feature‐Homogenised Spatial Target Analysis

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heavy construction machinery is essential for power infrastructure construction and maintenance, making safety distance measurement crucial for ensuring operational safety. Existing methods, which rely on target space mapping, face challenges such as error accumulation and limited accuracy.

Temperature Extraction Scheme for Composite Insulator Core Rod Sheath of Overhead Transmission Lines Based on Oriented Bounding Boxes

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) inspection of overhead transmission line composite insulators allows for the rapid acquisition of large amounts of infrared images of insulators in service, which can be used to analyse their operational status. However, efficiently and accurately analysing these images remains a challenge.

A Wildlife Multi‐Modal Recognition Method Based on Infrared Camera Images Using MWAC

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
A multimodal wild wildlife classification model MWAC consists of two parts:(1) Wavelet KAN module (WDS‐KAN) for image feature extraction, and (2) Label Correlated Text Extraction module (LC‐BERT) for text feature extraction. ABSTRACT Nowadays, infrared camera technology has become an important tool for large‐scale monitoring and assessment of wildlife ...

From LiDAR point clouds to 3D tree morphometrics: New approach to quantitatively evaluate tree shapes

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Tree crowns are complex, three‐dimensional structures whose morphology varies among species, individuals and environments. Although light detection and ranging (LiDAR) provides high‐resolution, single‐tree point clouds that advance species discrimination and the assessment of intraspecific variation in situ, crown shape is still commonly ...

Future of edge AI in biodiversity monitoring

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Many ecological decisions are slowed by the gap between collecting and analysing biodiversity information. Edge computing moves data processing closer to the sensor, with edge artificial intelligence (AI) using AI models for data processing and selective data transfer.

Comparing verbenone‐based repellents for ambrosia beetle management in eastern apple orchards

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Non‐native ambrosia beetles (Xylosandrus germanus, X. crassiusculus, Anisandrus maiche) damage high‐density apple orchards across the eastern United States, motivating the search for selective, semiochemical‐based repellent strategies. Across Ohio, New York and Pennsylvania, three verbenone formulations, sachets, SPLAT® VERB and a test SPLAT ...

Adaptive Sampling for BRDF Acquisition

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We propose a data‐driven adaptive sampling strategy that predicts the optimal sampling pattern and count for BRDF acquisition from a single image, reducing capture time while preserving quality. Abstract The bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) describes the ratio of incoming radiance to outgoing radiance for all possible pairs of ...
