Mesh Processing Non‐Meshes via Neural Displacement Fields

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Mesh processing pipelines are mature, but adapting them to newer non‐mesh surface representations—which enable fast rendering with compact file size—requires costly meshing or transmitting bulky meshes, negating their core benefits for streaming applications.

Optimized and Aligned Anisotropic Monte Carlo Sampling Patterns

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Path tracing uses Monte Carlo integration to solve the rendering equation by evaluating the integrand at random sampling points. The convergence rate of the error can be significantly improved by using correlated instead of random sampling, especially on smooth integrands.

Forest edges buffer effects of agricultural management on bee–plant interaction networks

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
Agricultural management effects: Organic and conventional crop margins host similar bee and plant species, but network structure differs: organic farms exhibit higher interaction diversity, conventional farms higher connectance. Role of forest edges: Native forest edges stabilize bee–plant networks by providing continuous floral resources and suitable ...

Graphene oxide–modified fluoridated varnish promotes mineral recovery in demineralized bovine enamel: An in vitro study

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract This in vitro study evaluated the efficacy of an experimental fluoridated varnish modified with graphene oxide (GO) nanoparticles in arresting initial caries lesion progression and promoting mineral recovery in demineralized bovine enamel.

Optimal Healthcare Contracts: Theory and Empirical Evidence

open access: yesJournal of Economics &Management Strategy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we investigate the contracts offered by a large healthcare purchaser to health service providers. Contracts are based on the DRG principle that all hospitalizations in a diagnosis group are reimbursed at the same rate. This principle is relaxed in practice, as in several cases, the amount reimbursed within each DRG exhibits ...
