Programmable Chiral Radiation via Spin‐Decoupled Metasurface with Integrated Compound Phases

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A programmable spin‐decoupled metasurface integrating propagation and geometric phases enables high‐purity chiral radiation with reconfigurable emission direction. Spin‐selective radiators combined with a compound phase decoupling strategy suppress undesired components, while embedded PIN diodes allow real‐time directional control.

Effect of risk and incentives on contracts: The case of farm operators in Iowa

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
Abstract Longitudinal data on Iowa landowner–operator contracts are used to examine how the mean, variance, and skewness of expected farmland returns affected contract terms from 2008 to 2019. To control for unobserved operator risk preferences and ability as a fixed effect, the sample includes operators with multiple contracts.

Determinants of Knowledge and Usage of Generative Artificial Intelligence in Agricultural Extension: Evidence From Tennessee Extension Personnel

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the determinants of generative AI (GenAI) knowledge and usage among agricultural extension professionals. Drawing on survey data from agricultural extension personnel in Tennessee, we employ regression analyses and latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) for topic modeling of open‐ended responses to study the knowledge and usage ...

Learning Optimal Crowd Evacuation from Scratch Through Self‐Play

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
How would a superintelligent crowd behave in emergencies? This study develops an approach using multiagent deep reinforcement learning combined with self‐play to discover optimal evacuation strategies for pressure‐aware agents. The model learns behaviors such as queuing and zipper‐merging that significantly surpass traditional approaches in fatality ...
