Overcoming the Nyquist Limit in Molecular Hyperspectral Imaging by Reinforcement Learning

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Explorative spectral acquisition guide automatically selects informative spectral bands to optimize downstream tasks, outperforming full‐spectrum acquisition. The selected hyperspectral data are used for tasks such as unmixing and segmentation. BandOptiNet encodes selection states and outputs optimal bands to guide spectral acquisition. Recent advances

Better Material Properties and Faster Catalyzed Chemical Recycling for Poly(L‐Lactide) Using a Simple Commercial Glycerol Ethoxylate Additive

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Glycerol ethoxylate (GEO), a branched ethylene glycol derivative, both toughens commercial PLLA and accelerates its chemical recycling to L‐lactide. The lead sample, containing 10 wt.% GEO, shows 9x higher elongation at break and 6x higher tensile toughness than pure PLLA. The GEO–PLLA samples are efficiently chemically recycled to L‐lactide, even when
