Dynamic Performance Enhancement of a High‐Agility Hypersonic Mechanical System via a Learning‐Augmented Robust Control Architecture

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The design of control systems for high‐agility mechanical systems operating in extreme environments is a significant challenge in nonlinear dynamics. This paper addresses the complex dynamic control problem of a hypersonic interceptor, modeled as a multi‐input multi‐output (MIMO) mechanical system characterized by strong aerodynamic cross ...

Sources of Eustress in Captivity

open access: yesZoo Biology, EarlyView.
Zoo environments foster enhanced animal welfare, integrated conservation, and improved population sustainability through the provision of eustressful factors (e.g., enrichment, social choice, positive human‐animal relationships), thus promoting cognitive challenge, improved resilience, and positive life experiences.

Addressing Long‐Tailed Drug–Drug Interactions Through Minimisation of Predictive Uncertainty and Loss Sharpness

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drug–Drug Interaction (DDI) prediction is critical for ensuring patient safety, particularly under long‐tailed distributions, where frequent (head) interactions dominate whereas rare (tail) interactions remain underrepresented. Conventional loss functions such as cross‐entropy often tend to overfit head classes while they underperform on rare ...

The Big Picture: Religion and Global Comparative History

open access: yesJournal of Religious History, EarlyView.
This article considers what a ‘big picture’ approach to global religious history might look like, and in particular the implications of deploying the comparative method across much larger stretches of time and space than historians normally attend to. It will begin by reflecting on the epistemological moods that have hindered this project to date, the ...

Syphilis and ‘Sons of Empire’: The ‘Prostitute’ and Britain's Fighting Arm in Nineteenth ̵ Century Colonial Punjab

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The British army in India took great care to provide European troops with facilities for sexual relations while anxiously managing venereal disease. Examining archival evidence, political debates and medical discourse from the nineteenth century, this article examines the colonial military enterprise of regulated prostitution in colonial ...

‘Brave, Armed and Watchful’: Domestic Militarization and Contested Femininities During the Kenyan Emergency

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines the militarization of white settler women during the Kenya Emergency (1952–1960), analyzing how their armed participation disrupted and reconfigured colonial gender norms. Drawing on visual and textual archival and newspaper sources, this article explores representations of settler women as maternal guardians of the ...

The Coloniality of Data: Police Databases and the Rationalization of Surveillance from Colonial Vietnam to the Modern Carceral State

open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tracing the early adoption of computer gang databases by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and the Los Angeles Police Department in the 1980s to the deployment of computationally‐assisted surveillance during the Vietnam War, this paper uses a genealogical approach to compare surveillance technologies developed across the arc of ...

Manipulating posture implicitly through environmental constraints influences mood and risk‐taking behaviour

open access: yesBritish Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Adopting physical expressions of emotion has feedback effects on individuals' mood and behaviour; for example, adopting the expansive and contractive body language of dominance and submission can affect individuals' feelings of power. However, postural feedback paradigms almost exclusively use deliberate, active posture manipulations, which ...

OUGS: Active View Selection via Object‐aware Uncertainty Estimation in 3DGS

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent advances in 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) have achieved state‐of‐the‐art results for novel view synthesis. However, efficiently capturing high‐fidelity reconstructions of specific objects within complex scenes remains a significant challenge.

Scalable Computation of Topological Abstractions for Scalar Data

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Topological data analysis has become an important tool for large scale scalar data analysis and visualization, efficiently extracting the inherent structure and features of interest of the data. However, with growing dataset sizes and complexity, it is increasingly becoming infeasible to compute topological abstractions of interest in serial ...
