Individual mapping of large polymorphic shrubs in high mountains using satellite images and deep learning [PDF]
Monitoring the distribution and size of long-living large shrubs, such as junipers, is crucial for assessing the long-term impacts of global change on high-mountain ecosystems. While deep learning models have shown remarkable success in object segmentation, adapting these models to detect shrub species with polymorphic nature remains challenging.

Deep-Learning Convolutional Neural Networks for scattered shrub detection with Google Earth Imagery [PDF]
There is a growing demand for accurate high-resolution land cover maps in many fields, e.g., in land-use planning and biodiversity conservation. Developing such maps has been performed using Object-Based Image Analysis (OBIA) methods, which usually reach good accuracies, but require a high human supervision and the best configuration for one image can ...

Forbidden Induced Subgraphs for Bounded Shrub-Depth and the Expressive Power of MSO [PDF]
The graph parameter shrub-depth is a dense analog of tree-depth. We characterize classes of bounded shrub-depth by forbidden induced subgraphs. The obstructions are well-controlled flips of large half-graphs and of disjoint unions of many long paths. Applying this characterization, we show that on every hereditary class of unbounded shrub-depth, MSO is

Shrub avoidance by an open-adapted ground squirrel in a shrub-encroached environment
Habitat loss and degradation are leading drivers of the widespread decline in wildlife populations, and understanding how wildlife perceive and navigate their environment is useful for predicting responses to future landscape changes. Small mammals play an important role in their environments, however, many species are threatened by rapid environmental

Les cendres végétales, matières premières des verres et des émaux : un exemple, les cendres de végétaux utilisées par Fr. D de Montmolin [PDF]
The powdery nature and high alkali content of vegetable ashes make them ideal raw materials to be used as modifiers of silicate compositions (glasses, enamels and ceramics). Their utilisation since ancient times is described in the literature of the history of glasses, but studies on the analyses of their composition are still limited.

Towards angiosperms genome evolution in time [PDF]
In this communication, direction of evolutionary variability of parameters of genome size and structurally functional activity of plants in angiosperm taxa among life forms, are analysed. It is shown that, in the Cretaceous-Cenozoic era, the nuclear genome of the plants tended to increase.
