TROPICAL FRENCH THEORY: Henri Lefebvre and the Reinvention of Urban Planning in Havana, Cuba (1968–1971)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Contributing to global urban history, planning theory and the geography of ideas, this article discusses the travels of Henri Lefebvre’s The Right to the City in the wake of May 1968, in France. That year, under the direction of Mario González and Max Baquero, a small team including the Italian architect Vittorio Garatti, French planner Jean ...

AGRICULTURE IN A SOCIALIST CITY: Towards an Alter‐Urban Political Ecology

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Urban political ecology has developed as a critique of capitalist urbanization. This article develops the concept of alter‐urban political ecology to define urban environments emerging not from capitalist urbanization but from efforts to transform it. Drawing on archival research and ethnographic fieldwork in five urban farms in socialist Cuba,

The Role Of The Receptive Field Structure In Neuronal Compressive Sensing Signal Processing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The receptive field structure ubiquitous in the visual system is believed to play a crucial role in encoding stimulus characteristics, such as contrast and spectral composition.

Geological Substrate Is Related to Tooth Senescence and Population Dynamic: The Case Study of Alpine Chamois (Rupicapra rupicapra L.)

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
In Alpine chamois, the complete wear of the first molar coincides with the beginning of senescence and the progress of tooth wear on calcareous substrate is slower than the one on other substrates, increasing life expectancy. Thus, the first molar wear may actually be considered as an effective descriptor of senescence stage.

Quantum weak values and logic, an uneasy couple

open access: yes, 2017
Quantum mechanical weak values of projection operators have been used to answer which-way questions, e.g. to trace which arms in a multiple Mach-Zehnder setup a particle may have traversed from a given initial to a prescribed final state.

Small Object Detection Method for Bioimages Based on Improved YOLOv8n Model

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study proposes a small object detection method for bioimages based on an improved YOLOv8n model. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach effectively enhances detection precision, recall, and mAP50, offering a novel solution for the technical challenges in biological microscopy research.

Pigeons

open access: yesLaw Text Culture, 2018
I guess it was a couple of instants after knowing that an airliner crashed into one of the towers of the World Trade Center, the North Tower, right after having received a phone call from a colleague based in Boston, area code 617. He had been awake for two hours already.

Effects of Vector Density on Blood Parasite Spread and Health Consequences for Avian Hosts: An Experimental Epidemiology Blueprint

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
In an experimental epidemiology setup, groups of pigeons were exposed to different numbers of infective malaria vectors. Vector number explained the speed of transmission, the final prevalence, and changes in host behavior. ABSTRACT Vector density plays a critical role in the transmission dynamics of vector‐borne diseases and thus in their health and ...

Agroecology and Transformative Adaptation to Climate Change

open access: yesAsia Pacific Viewpoint, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines transformative adaptation to climate change through the EFICAS Project (Eco‐Friendly Intensification and Climate‐resilient Agricultural Systems) implemented across 12 upland communities in northern Laos from 2014 to 2020.
