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 ...

Robotic push-based self-assembly of hexagonal tiles for space applications
2025 International Conference on Space Robotics (iSpaRo)Assembling large-scale infrastructure in space presents significant technical and logistical challenges. Traditionally, this process involves dividing complex systems into smaller modules, launching them separately, and assembling them in orbit; often relying on sophisticated and costly robotic systems.This paper introduces a robotic push-based self ...

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.This study presents a semi‐automated, rule‐based image analysis pipeline to detect ice seals in aerial surveys of the Western Antarctic Peninsula during an unusually low sea ice year. By using simple hierarchical clustering instead of deep learning, the method substantially reduced human annotation effort while achieving 82% recall, identifying 758 ...

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.We evaluated single‐ and multi‐sensor UAV approaches for classifying tree species and standing dead trees in boreal forests, focusing on key biodiversity indicators such as European aspen. Using spectral and structural features extracted from RGB, multispectral (MSP), and LiDAR point clouds for 1,205 field‐measured trees, we compared classification ...

Development and implementation of a mobile robot for grouting floor tile joints
IAES International Journal of Robotics and Automation (IJRA)<p>Many construction tasks need time and effort from people. Thus, modern technology is one of its purposes to aid task completion. These include grouting floor tile joints. It takes time and effort to complete this process. Traditional methods for grouting floor tile joints between tiles are inefficient and require the worker to stay on his ...

Efficient Reconfiguration of Tile Arrangements by a Single Active Robot
We consider the problem of reconfiguring a two-dimensional connected grid arrangement of passive building blocks from a start configuration to a goal configuration, using a single active robot that can move on the tiles, remove individual tiles from a given location and physically move them to a new position by walking on the remaining configuration ...

Small, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The rapid expansion of the Internet of Things (IoT) and wearable electronics necessitates sustainable power sources to replace the limited electrochemical battery. While mechanical energy harvesting offers a promising solution, traditional harvesters face challenges of irregular and low−frequency environmental sources. This review presents the
