Does Trap Type Matter? Evaluating the Influence of Funnel and Pitfall Traps on Reptile Relative Abundance and Diversity

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Compounding pressures from climate change, land use change and habitat loss are driving global biodiversity declines. Reptiles are particularly vulnerable to these threats due to their small range sizes and limited dispersal abilities. However, data on species distributions, population sizes and basic ecology remain sparse for many Australian ...

Recognition of biometrie unlock pattern by GMM-UBM

open access: yes2018 26th Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference (SIU), 2018
Unlock patterns are used for authentication in mobile smart devices, yet they are vulnerable to attacks, since only the pattern draw is required. Extra biometric data of the user while drawing the unlock pattern passwords may strengthen the authentication, such as the speed of drawing, the pressure of the finger on the touch screen.

Translational Considerations for Injectable Biomaterials and Bioscaffolds to Repair and Regenerate Brain Tissue

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 27, 17 July 2026.
The repair and regeneration of brain tissue faces both biological and technical challenges. Injectable bioscaffolds offer new opportunities to stimulate tissue regrowth in the brain by recruiting neural stem cells. Here, the translational issues are reviewed that need to be address to advance this promising new therapeutic approach from the bench to ...

The illusion of posterior lenticonus in a patient of anterior lenticonus

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ophthalmology and Research
The rare occurrence of both anterior and posterior lenticonus in association with Alport’s syndrome has been reported. However, the diagnosis of posterior lenticonus in these cases was based solely on slit-lamp examination, casting doubt on its accuracy.

Genetic Evidence From Linkage Disequilibrium Score Regression and Mendelian Randomization Links Cheese Intake to Cognitive Function

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 4, July 2026.
Cheese intake emerged as the strongest beneficial dietary factor for cognitive and mental health traits, supported by LDSC and two‐sample MR analyses. eQTL‐mapped genes linked to cheese‐associated variants converged on PPI and enrichment pathways involving cognition, synaptic function, and brain‐relevant biological processes.

Discriminative Feedback Adaptation for GMM-UBM Speaker Verification [PDF]

open access: yesInt. Symp. on Chinese Spoken Language Processing, 2008
The GMM-UBM system is the current state-of-the-art approach for text-independent speaker verification. The advantage of the approach is that both target speaker model and impostor model (UBM) have generalization ability to handle "unseen" acoustic patterns.
