Implicit calibration method for underwater stereo cameras

Optics Express
Underwater stereo cameras can effectively capture intricate environments with restricted accessibility, offering an appealing solution for precise perception. Stereo imaging is however susceptible to distortions caused by the refraction of incoming rays.

Improving forest age estimation to understand subtropical forest regrowth dynamics using deep learning image segmentation of time‐series historical aerial photographs

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Accurately estimating forest age is key to understanding how forests recover and evaluating restoration success. We developed a two‐step deep learning approach using historical greyscale aerial photographs to map forest age at fine spatial scales. By combining a pre‐trained model with localized fine‐tuning, our U‐Net + ResNet50 architecture achieved ...

Experimental and theoretical investigation of longitudinal tunnel lining joints with confining reinforcement

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Precast reinforced concrete segmental linings are frequently used in modern tunneling. In these linings, the longitudinal joints typically have a reduced contact cross‐section and thus often govern the design, particularly in tunnels under high hydrostatic pressure or crossing squeezing or swelling ground with correspondingly high ...

RAGLRO: Retrieval‐Augmented Generation With Large Language Models for Robotic Operations

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To enable autonomous operations in complex industrial environments, this paper proposes retrieval‐augmented generation with large language models for robotic operations (RAGLRO), a robotic framework specifically designed for power switchgear operation tasks.

Regional Infrared and Visible Image Registration for Distribution Substation Areas With Wide Depth of Field

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Infrared and visible image registration is a key task in automated distribution network inspection. Previous approaches typically apply a single homography to align infrared and visible images leading to local misalignment. To address this, this study proposes a novel region‐based registration algorithm specifically designed for wide‐depth ...

Functional validation of a white pupae minimal gene construct in Ceratitis capitata (Diptera: Tephritidae)

Insect Science, EarlyView.
An intronless version of the white pupae (wp) gene was engineered to restore the wild type brown puparium color in white pupae phenotype mutants of the Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata. Functionality of the minimal gene version (mini‐wp) was verified in vivo, as one copy of mini‐wp successfully restored the wild type phenotype in homozygous ...

CRISPR/Cas9‐based white pupae mutant lines in Bactrocera spp. for sterile insect technique applications

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Bactrocera fruit flies are significant horticultural pests that cause major economic losses. A “neoclassical approach” incorporating genome editing via CRISPR/Cas9 to develop genetic sexing strains (GSS) could render the sterile insect technique (SIT) against these pests more efficient and cost‐effective.

Automated counting of fish in moving diver‐operated videos (DOV) for biodiversity assessments

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Underwater video transects are crucial to assess marine biodiversity and biomass. Counting fish in these videos is labour‐ and time‐intensive and operator‐dependent. Automating this step would create non‐biased biodiversity data and decouple the data collection campaign from any field constraints.

Image‐Based Spatio‐Temporal Interpolation for Split Rendering

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Low‐powered devices – such as small form factor head‐mounted displays (HMDs) – struggle to deliver a smooth and high‐quality viewing experience, due to their limited power and rendering capabilities. Cloud rendering attempts to solve the quality issue, but leads to prohibitive latency and bandwidth requirements, hindering use with HMDs over ...
