Enhanced Monocular Depth Estimation Using ResNet Backbone and Multiscale Feature Decoding for Precise Object Distance Measurement

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
A lightweight monocular perception framework generates high‐fidelity depth maps and integrates YOLOv8 detection to estimate object‐wise distances from a single RGB image. Evaluated on KITTI and the proposed D‐Far250 dataset, the system demonstrates accurate long‐range perception up to 250 m while maintaining real‐time performance, enabling scalable ...

Is the well‐known phrase ‘small is beautiful’ true of small transnational education institutions?

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, Volume 52, Issue 4, Page 2777-2796, August 2026.
Abstract The purpose of this research is to consider the potential attractiveness of operating a small international branch campus (IBC). Drawing upon resource‐based and legitimacy theories, we examine the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats associated with the business model that is based on having a small institution size.

Investigating the Impact of Fast‐Paced Digital Content, Social Media Engagement, and Lifestyle Factors on Attention, Cognitive Load, and Behavioral Impulsivity: A Machine Learning Approach

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The increase in fast‐paced digital content and changes in lifestyle among young adults have raised concerns about their effects on cognitive functions. While many studies have looked into this connection, few have used strong machine learning models to predict subclinical cognitive outcomes based on real‐world, self‐reported ...

Rethinking Climate Change on the Role of Human Power Generation, Alternative Perspectives, Potential Solutions, and a Plea for Action

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, Volume 98, Issue 8, Page 514-524, August 2026.
All energy matters Let us broaden the discussion on solutions to climate change. Greenhouse gases have upset the delicate equilibrium of the Earth's energy balance. Consequently, all sources of heat affect the temperature of the Earth. Although the amount of additional heat generated by humans is a fraction of that produced by the sun, it is generated ...

Understanding When Attention Helps: A Systematic Empirical Study of Attention Mechanisms in Medical Image Classification

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
We present a unified benchmark of fourteen attention mechanisms across multiple CNN backbones and diverse medical imaging datasets, revealing that attention effectiveness is highly scenario‐ and architecture‐dependent. The study provides practical, evidence‐based guidance for selecting attention designs that yield reliable performance gains in medical ...

Physics Constraint‐Guided Neural Network for Solving Partial Differential Equations

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
A Physics Constraint‐Guided Network (PCGN) is proposed to solve partial differential equations by integrating physical encoding, adaptive residual balancing, and constraint projection. The framework enables stable constraint propagation, improves physical consistency, and achieves higher accuracy and robustness compared with existing neural network ...
