What Is Space Bioethics?

open access: yesBioethics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Classical bioethics examines moral issues in terrestrial medicine and the life sciences. According to Konrad Szocik, space bioethics merely relocates those questions to harsher environments. We argue that this view is incomplete: space bioethics is a genuinely original domain.

Out There No One Has a Right to Die

open access: yesBioethics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The eventual goal of space exploration is to colonize exoplanets and their moons outside our solar system. This is a dangerous and immoral endeavour. The extraterrestrial life forms encountered would be hostile, vulnerable or both, and the descendants of the original pioneers would be involuntarily exposed to hazardous conditions and ...

Self‐supervised Learning of Fine‐to‐Coarse Cuboid Shape Abstraction

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract The abstraction of 3D objects with simple geometric primitives like cuboids allows us to infer structural information from complex geometry. It is important for 3D shape understanding, structural analysis and geometric modeling. We introduce a novel fine‐to‐coarse self‐supervised learning approach to abstract collections of 3D shapes.

How iteration frequencies affect project uncertainty and risk ‐ An empirically elaborated model

open access: yesDecision Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Iterative approaches have gained prominence in new product development (NPD) projects in response to increasingly dynamic and turbulent business environments. In this article, we study how iteration frequency—that is, the rhythm at which development teams revisit and test comprehensive products—affects an NPD project's uncertainty and risk. We

Defining the geographical level of competition: a taxonomy of industry tradability

open access: yesEconomica, EarlyView.
Abstract The paper develops a taxonomy of industry tradability to define the geographical level at which competition takes place. First, it creates a novel dataset that combines production and international trade data for both goods and services industries, defined at a detailed (3‐digit) level of industry aggregation for 15 European countries.
