The “We” and “Me” of Identity in Hazardous Industry Organizations: Face Work Tactics Among Practicing Engineers

Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
In this paper, we use Goffman's notion of “face work” to examine how pipeline engineers perform and present their working selves as competent experts. Our analysis identifies various faces and face work tactics, including a focus on professional judgment, actively selling one's expertise relative to others, protective self‐deprecatory strategies, and ...

A high‐altitude thermal infrared method for estimating moose abundance and demography in Rocky Mountain National Park, USA

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Resource managers require accurate estimates of large herbivore abundance and demography to maintain ecological integrity. Common methods to count these species, including observations from low altitude helicopter flights, may conflict with other protected area management objectives and struggle to produce precise estimates for more cryptic species. To

Urban bats show dietary flexibility in aquatic arthropod consumption at urban and rural waterbodies

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Urban waterbodies are critical for biodiversity and provide feeding grounds for insectivorous bats. Yet, how urbanisation affects bats' food choices at urban waterbodies and the role of emergent aquatic arthropods remain poorly understood. We compared the diet of three urban bat species – Vespadelus vulturnus, Chalinolobus gouldii,and Myotis macropus –

Experimental assessment of large mammal population estimates from airborne thermal videography

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wildlife resource management requires reliable, fast, and affordable methods of surveying wildlife populations to develop and adaptively adjust policies. Thermal video from drones can yield high rates of detection over large areas with relative speed and safety.

MultiRobot Motion Planning Based on Diffusion and Time–Space Path Planning

Artificial Intelligence for Engineering, EarlyView.
This diffusion‐based framework for multirobot motion planning reuses a pretrained single‐robot Motion Planning Diffusion model, employing an alternating trajectory generation scheme guided by inter‐robot collision costs, resulting in coordinated planning without additional multi‐robot training.

Robust Multi‐Source Batch Normalisation for Test‐Time Batch Adaptation

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Test‐Time Batch Adaptation (TTBA) aims to adapt a pre‐trained source model to small, unlabelled target batches at test time. The TTBA methods focus on adapting the pre‐trained model or the target data in a one‐to‐one alignment paradigm. However, these one‐to‐one alignment paradigms assume that the source domain may share the same knowledge ...
