Abstract Automating bridge inspections requires more than detecting individual damage instances. It demands systems capable of describing, contextualizing, and interpreting damage in an inspection‐relevant manner. Conventional computer vision approaches, such as object detection and segmentation, primarily address visual recognition tasks and are ...

Secularism, Gender and Masculinity in Nineteenth‐Century Cremation in Europe and the USA
ABSTRACT This essay explores, from transnational perspectives, the early history of modern cremation, which developed in the long nineteenth century with secularist connotations. I argue that the beginnings of modern cremation were shaped by bourgeois men who claimed certain identifiers for themselves in a gendering and Othering way.
