Detecting oracle bone inscriptions via pseudo-category labels

open access: yesHeritage Science
Oracle bone inscriptions (OBIs) are the earliest Chinese characters and reserve abundant historical information. OBIs are detected by locating their positions in digital images. This has been a foundational task in modern archeological studies.

An Oracle Bone Inscriptions Detection Algorithm Based on Improved YOLOv8

open access: yesAlgorithms
Ancient Chinese characters known as oracle bone inscriptions (OBIs) were inscribed on turtle shells and animal bones, and they boast a rich history dating back over 3600 years. The detection of OBIs is one of the most basic tasks in OBI research.

Sex Differences in Fall Frequency, Risk Factors, and Outcomes in Parkinson's Disease: A Cross‐Sectional Analysis

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Female sex is an independent fall risk factor in Parkinson's disease (PD), yet sex‐specific fall patterns remain unclear. Objectives To compare sex‐specific fall risk and outcomes across PD, prodromal alpha‐synucleinopathy (PAS), and healthy controls (HC); estimate fall frequency across PD progression; and assess how sex modifies ...

Scalable low‐cost seabed landers: the missing link for sustained, integrated, long‐term observations in dynamic shallow seas

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Seabed landers, when equipped with a range of biotic and abiotic sensors, offer a non‐invasive and cost‐effective solution for ecosystem‐scale monitoring of Essential Biodiversity Variables (EBVs) and Essential Ocean Variables (EOVs) in dynamic shallow seas.

Characteristic of HBV nucleic acid amplification testing yields from blood donors in China

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2021
Background Nucleic acid amplification testing (NAT) for blood screening has been previously performed in some countries to determine NAT yields. The current study sought to explore the non-discriminating reactive NAT yields using individual-NAT (ID-NAT ...

E2 Site Mutations in S Protein Strongly Affect Hepatitis B Surface Antigen Detection in the Occult Hepatitis B Virus

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The mechanism of occult hepatitis B infection (OBI) has not yet been fully clarified. Our previous research found that novel OBI-related mutation within S protein, E2G, could cause the hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) secretion impairment, which ...

Ontologies for Sustainability: Theoretical Challenges

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The lack of sustainable practices in key sectors of human societies is a global concern, posing threats for the whole planet. This paper provides the first review of ontologies for sustainability efforts, outlining their roles in assessing and advancing such efforts. Section 2 outlines three major challenges associated with sustainability: (1)

Improving data availability with “OBIS-ENV-DATA”: Examples from OBIS-USA [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of TDWG, 2017
During biological sampling events, measurements are routinely collected about the event as well as about the biological observations. For example, the same sampling event might collect event measurements like water temperature and salinity as well as biological measurements like abundance and weight.

Perspectives on Climate Change in Education for Sustainability: Linking Concepts and Skills for a Practical Ecological Transition

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT ‘Hard’ natural sciences have extensively been used to provide evidence that climate change is happening and climate action is needed. If the contribution of our economic activities to disturbing our climate systems is now largely accepted, the way in which we design and operationalise ‘climate action’—how we transition to more sustainable ...
