UBVH: Unified Bounding Volume and Scene Geometry Representation for Ray Tracing
Abstract Bounding volume hierarchies (BVHs) are currently the most common data structure used to accelerate ray tracing. The existing BVH methods distinguish between the bounding volume representation associated with the interior BVH nodes and the scene geometry representation associated with leaf nodes.

Abstract Background Computer vision‐based algorithms offer accessible alternatives for equine gait analysis but require thorough assessment under diverse conditions. Objectives To evaluate a proprietary vision‐based algorithm's reliability in measuring vertical displacement signals (VDS) at the eye, withers and croup, alongside groundline estimation ...

ABSTRACT Monitoring recreational fisheries is difficult: anglers are widely dispersed, gear and practices vary, and many species are involved, which leads to fragmented and scarce data. To address these issues, we developed an Artificial Intelligence (AI) pipeline that turns angler‐reported photos into standardised records of catch composition and ...

Scale‐robust fibre orientation analysis of hair using two‐dimensional Fourier transform
We present a simple and robust method to quantify hair fibre orientation using 2D‐DFT. It works with standard images and extracts directional features at multiple scales. This enables objective evaluation of cosmetic treatments and product effects. Abstract Objective To address the current lack of standardized tools for evaluating hair appearance in ...

Old Skool Spinning and Syncing: Memory, Technologies, and Occupational Membership in a DJ Community
Abstract We show how technology and its temporal instantiations act as material‐relational mnemonic devices that provide temporal anchors for collective remembering in occupations and form the basis of what we call an 'occupational mnemonic community'.
