Finding the Optimal Convolutional Kernel Size for Semantic Segmentation of Pole-like Objects in Lidar Point Clouds [PDF]

The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences
Pole-like objects (PLOs) are important street assets in urban environments, yet current deep learning methods often underperform in their segmentation compared to other objects.

The spatial impact of local infrastructural investment in New Zealand

, 2010
In this paper we estimate the impact of local authority infrastructure spending in New Zealand using spatial econometric modeling, with the infrastructure spending itself endogenously determined.

Impact of Political Economy on Land Administration Reform

Land
Population growth, urbanization and climate change are all factors that have made it increasingly difficult for governments to manage, allocate and permit the development and use of the finite land resource that is available in any society.

Pole-NN: Few-Shot Classification of Pole-Like Objects in Lidar Point Clouds [PDF]

ISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences
In the realm of autonomous systems and smart-city initiatives, accurately detecting and localizing pole-like objects (PLOs) such as electrical poles and traffic signs has become crucial.

An unexpected alternative viologen electron mediator site in tungsten‐containing formate dehydrogenase

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
An unexpected alternative interaction site for ethyl viologen was identified in formate dehydrogenase 1 from Methylorubrum extorquens. Combined mutagenesis, kinetic analysis, and docking revealed that aromatic residues near an iron–sulfur cluster enable flavin mononucleotide‐independent electron transfer, offering a framework for engineering improved ...

A Vision Language-Based Framework for Detecting Industrial Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing Assets Using Unlabelled Data

Sensors
There have been significant advancements in object detection using extensive labelled datasets. However, existing learning-based approaches remain constrained in industrial environments, primarily due to the limited diversity in training datasets; the ...

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Spatial data infrastructure convergence: building spatial data infrastructure bridges to address climate change [PDF]

, 2011
Climate change is the greatest social, economic, and environmental challenge of the present time. Researchers working in the field of climate science argue that the issues of regional climate change are as complicated as global issues.

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Spatial Data Infrastructure in Natural Disaster Management

Tehnički Glasnik, 2021
Natural disasters that cause tremendous material harm and threaten human lives, infrastructure, and economic and social activities become more frequent. While most material and human casualties are the effects of sudden and brief natural disasters, it is
