Robotics‐assisted acoustic surveys could deliver reliable, landscape‐level biodiversity insights

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Deploying and maintaining sensors is often a major bottleneck in collecting rapid biodiversity data. We tested whether autonomous hopping drones equipped with acoustic recorders could collect reliable biodiversity data in Costa Rica. Using 26,000+ hours of existing audio from 341 sites, with machine learning detections of 19 bird species and spider ...

Isolation, Insularity and Resilience: A Review of the Geophysical, Socioeconomic, and Environmental Vulnerabilities of Gran Canaria and Lesvos Islands for Policy Interventions to Global Change

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.

High Sensitivity Cardiac Troponin I Detection via MP‐Locked Aptamer and Multimeric DNAzyme‐Coupled Hyperbranched Hybridization Chain Reaction

Small, EarlyView.
We report a magnetic particle anchored locked aptamer platform integrated with hyperbranched HCR and DNAzyme amplification for enzyme‐free, ultrasensitive detection of cardiac troponin I. The assay achieves a 0.25 ng/L detection limit within 25 minutes and enables cross‐species MI detection, with machine learning classification reaching 90% accuracy ...

AI‐enabled bumpless transfer control strategy for legged robot with hybrid energy storage system

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Designing Hybrid energy storage system (HESS) for a legged robot is significant to improve the motion performance and energy efficiency of the robot. However, switching between the driving mode and regenerative braking mode in the HESS may generate a torque bump, which has brought significant challenges to the stability of the robot locomotion.

Investigating Spatial‐Temporal Optical Emission Spectroscopy of Unstable Positive Leaders in Long Sparks Under Atmospheric Pressure

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explores exciting state species and reaction pathways in positive leaders to better understand the breakdown mechanisms of long air gap discharges and natural lightning. Emission spectra from an unstable positive leader in a 1 m rod‐plate air gap under switching impulse voltages were observed, spanning 300–800 nm.

3D scene reconstruction from body‐worn camera video using 3DF Zephyr

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Body‐worn cameras document crime scenes during initial law enforcement response, yet their potential for forensic reconstruction has not been empirically validated. Despite expanding global adoption, recorded video primarily serves qualitative documentation rather than quantitative measurement applications.

An intelligent partial charging navigation strategy for electric vehicles

Geo-spatial Information Science
The rise of electric vehicles (EVs) has highlighted the issue of insufficient charging infrastructure, a major barrier to their widespread adoption. This problem is due to the limited capacity of existing charging networks and the performance constraints

The role of case management in misdemeanor prosecution

Criminology, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite increasing attention to prosecutors' role in shaping criminal justice outcomes, there is limited empirical research on what prosecutors do. While most theories of prosecutorial discretion emphasize overarching goals related to justice and safety, our paper shifts the focus toward the practical realities of the job, particularly in the ...
