Amphibious Movement of Microrobots Inspired by Water Spiders

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by the water strider, a novel microrobot is designed to maintain amphibious mobility in complex environments. It retains the ability to traverse the air‐liquid interface and perform directional movement within sophisticated, multifaceted environments, including complex gastric wall structures, with precise controllability.

Terrain Classification using Multiple Image Features [PDF]

, 2007
A wide variety of image processing applications require segmentation and classification of images. The problem becomes complex when the images are obtained in an uncontrolled environment with a non-uniform illumination. The selection of suitable features

Optimized Land–Water Management Expands Afforestation Potential Under Land and Human Water‐Use Constraints

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Human water demand constrains China's feasible afforestation potential more strongly than is commonly recognized, and future climate change further intensifies this limitation. Integrating land‐use optimization with water‐saving measures substantially expands feasible afforestation area and associated carbon sinks, revealing a practical pathway to ...

JPSSL: SAR Terrain Classification Based on Jigsaw Puzzles and FC-CRF

Remote Sensing
Effective features play an important role in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image interpretation. However, since SAR images contain a variety of terrain types, it is not easy to extract effective features of different terrains from SAR images.

Habitat‐Specific Design Strategies for Untethered Soft Robots

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Habitat shapes the design of untethered soft robots. Across land, water, air, and living tissues, environmental constraints govern viable combinations of compliant structures, actuation mechanisms, and energy delivery. This review connects these constraints with robotic performance and identifies design principles for advancing adaptable, durable, and ...

Differentiated Impacts of EU Rural Development Measures: A Finite Mixture Evaluation of Italian Olive Farms

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the relationship between participation in the EU Rural Development Program and the economic performance of Italian olive farms using a finite‐mixture model with inverse‐probability‐weighted regression adjustment. Based on 2010–2022 FADN panel data, it estimates heterogeneous treatment effects while correcting for selection ...

Loss Regularizing Robotic Terrain Classification

CoRR
Locomotion mechanics of legged robots are suitable when pacing through difficult terrains. Recognising terrains for such robots are important to fully yoke the versatility of their movements. Consequently, robotic terrain classification becomes significant to classify terrains in real time with high accuracy.
