Depositional processes of varved sediments from proglacial Lago Frías since 1800 CE (North Patagonian Andes, Argentina)

Boreas, EarlyView.
The glacierized Valle Frías in Northern Patagonia is one of the best‐studied valleys in South America and includes varved sediments from Lago Frías. We complement this lacustrine record with a high‐resolution documentation of varve counts and their composition.

Splatshop: Efficiently Editing Large Gaussian Splat Models

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present Splatshop, a highly optimized toolbox for interactive editing (selection, deletion, painting, transformation, …) of 3D Gaussian Splatting models. Utilizing a comprehensive collection of heuristic approaches, we carefully balance between exact and fast rendering to enable precise editing without sacrificing real‐time performance. Our

TerraTinker: Crafting Playful Geospatial Visualizations

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract With the onset of digital technologies, conveying information to the young generation is becoming evermore challenging, forcing us to explore alternative methods, such as using video games. A typical area that could benefit from innovation is geography, where we want to convey the relationship between selected geographical locations and ...

Fast Nodal Hessian Computation for Peridynamic Fracture Simulation

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
A fast, exact nodal Hessian computation for Non‐Ordinary State‐Based Peridynamics is introduced through analytical simplification and a warp‐centric GPU strategy. The method accelerates preconditioned solvers and Vertex Block Descent, enabling interactive fracture simulation with physical accuracy.

The Development of the Tool for Rating the qUality of Services sTandards (TRUST)

Journal of Evidence-Based Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background This study aimed to develop a preliminary framework for the systematic, multi‐dimensional evaluation of service standards, the Tool for Rating the qUality of Service sTandards (TRUST), to address the heterogeneity and quality‐related deficiencies in existing standards and to provide a preliminary evidence‐informed basis for ...

Rhododendron diversity patterns provide new insights for conserving China's montane flora

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Integrating distribution, phylogenetic, and functional trait data for 603 Rhododendron species in China identified significant conservation hotspots of multidimensional diversity, particularly in the Hengduan Mountains. Climate seasonality and topographic heterogeneity jointly influenced these patterns; however, notable conservation gaps remained ...

The Belief–Desire Appraisal Theory of Emotion

Pacific Philosophical Quarterly, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT I introduce the Belief–Desire Appraisal Theory of Emotion (BDA). BDA makes three main claims: (a) Emotions are psychological episodes whose paradigmatic instances are constituted by coordinated changes in appraisals, action tendencies, bodily responses, and subjective feelings; (b) appraisals—which are rapid, low‐level evaluations of ...

Re‐Imagining Regulatory Governance

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper invites the readers to rethink regulatory governance by examining how trust‐based and rule‐based governance interact. To do this, it uses analytical narratives of three fictional polities: “Trustland”, “Regland”, and “Concordia”. Each polity represents a stylized model of governance: Trustland is anchored in trust‐based governance ...

Governing Without Enforcing: Foundational Legal Infrastructure and the Capacity–Justiciability Gap in AI Rights Protection

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Across 124 jurisdictions, formal legal architecture for AI‐related rights protection—including data protection legislation, independent oversight authorities, and sanctioning powers—is substantially more developed than the institutional conditions that make those rights operationally enforceable in practice.

Advanced Posterior Analyses of Hidden Markov Models: Finite Markov Chain Imbedding and Hybrid Decoding

Scandinavian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Two major tasks in applications of hidden Markov models are to (i) compute distributions of summary statistics of the hidden state sequence, and (ii) decode the hidden state sequence. We describe finite Markov chain imbedding (FMCI) and hybrid decoding to solve each of these two tasks.
