All Six Planets Known to Orbit Kepler-11 Have Low Densities
, 2013 The Kepler-11 planetary system contains six transiting planets ranging in size from 1.8 to 4.2 times the radius of Earth. Five of these planets orbit in a tightly-packed configuration with periods between 10 and 47 days.

Rock falls impacting railway tracks. Detection analysis through an artificial intelligence camera prototype [PDF]
, 2017 During the last few years, several approaches have been proposed to improve early warning systems for managing geological risk due to landslides, where important infrastructures (such as railways, highways, pipelines, and aqueducts) are exposed elements.

Automated rock mass condition assessment during TBM tunnel excavation using deep learning
Scientific Reports, 2022 Rock mass condition assessment during tunnel excavation is a critical step for the intelligent control of tunnel boring machine (TBM). To address this and achieve automatic detection, a visual assessment system is installed to the TBM and a lager in-situ
