Modelling Hierarchical Configurations in Innovation Research With Two‐Step QCA: Methodological Recommendations and an Application to Workarounds

Creativity and Innovation Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Creativity and innovation are often understood as the result of a complex interplay of hierarchical factors, such as national, regional and firm characteristics, or between organisational and individual factors. While recent applications of qualitative comparative analysis (QCA) have begun to model such configurational links, their ...

Neural Local Inter‐reflection Modeling for Garment Fold Rendering

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Realistic garment rendering requires simulating complex multi‐bounce light paths within intricate fold geometries. In these regions, conventional path tracing is computationally expensive as light becomes trapped, necessitating high bounce counts for convergence.

Edge‐preserving noise for diffusion models

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Classical diffusion models typically rely on isotropic Gaussian noise, treating all regions uniformly and overlooking structural information important for high‐quality generation. We introduce an edge‐preserving diffusion process that generalizes isotropic models via a hybrid noise scheme with an edge‐aware scheduler that smoothly transitions ...

Hierarchical Optimization of the As‐Rigid‐As‐Possible Energy

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract The As‐Rigid‐As‐Possible (ARAP) energy [SA07] has become a versatile ingredient in various geometry processing and machine learning methods. The classic method for its minimization is a block coordinate descent, alternating between local rotation estimation and a global linear solve, which converges slowly for large problem instances.

Disentangling mechanisms that mediate soil fungal α and β diversity during forest secondary succession

Ecography, EarlyView.
Understanding the mechanisms controlling community diversity is a central, topic in ecology, particularly in microbial ecology. Although species pools and local assembly processes are believed to play non‐negligible roles in shaping the within‐community (α) and among‐community (β) diversity of microbial communities, their relative importance as ...
