Abstract Hidden Markov diagnostic classification models capture how students' cognitive attributes evolve over time. This paper introduces a Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm for diagnostic classification models that jointly estimates time‐varying Q matrices, latent attributes, item parameters, attribute class proportions and transition ...

We summarize the current state of knowledge on the age of the Middle Pleistocene ice advances into northern central Europe and provide 25 new single‐grain feldspar luminescence ages of Elsterian and Saalian glacigenic sediments to constrain the age of the ice advances and their tentative correlation with marine isotope stages/substages.

PBR‐Inspired Controllable Diffusion for Image Generation
Abstract Despite recent advances in text‐to‐image generation, controlling geometric layout and PBR material properties in synthesized scenes remains challenging. We present a pipeline that first produces a G‐buffer (albedo, normals, depth, roughness, shading, and metallic) from a text prompt and then renders a final image through a PBR‐inspired branch ...

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

Quantitative Metrics for Edge Bundling of Network Visualizations
Abstract Edge bundling is widely used for reducing visual clutter in large 2D network and trajectory visualizations. Various edge bundling methods have been proposed, each producing qualitatively distinct outputs for the same data; however, few quantitative metrics exist for systematic evaluation. In this paper, we propose a set of quantitative metrics

Utilization of Saline Water on the Mechanical Properties for Unbounded Granular Materials
It is well known that three quarters of the world contain saline water. The saline water contains amounts of salt dissolved in water to a concentration of parts in per millions (ppm) includes sodium chloride, Sodium sulfate and magnesium sulfate. Compaction of Base coarse layer is usually done by water which is considered tap water.

Advances in 4D Representation: Geometry, Motion, and Interaction
We survey 4D representation through three key pillars — geometry, motion, and interaction — offering a selective, representation‐centric perspective to guide researchers in choosing and customizing the right 4D representation for their tasks. Abstract We present a survey on 4D generation and reconstruction, a fast‐evolving subfield of computer graphics

An anisotropic model of unbound granular material under repeated loading
The base and subbase layers of a pavement are compacted to the desired density by rollers. This cause the anisotropy in other words the layer more stiffer in the vertical direction than the horizontal direction. In the study inherent and stress induced anisotropy were measured by using the repeated load triaxial test equipment which is able to cycle ...

Innovation and the great divergence
Abstract Recent historical national accounting data show that the timing of the Great Divergence hinges on the different trends in north‐west Europe and the Yangzi Delta region of China. Although north‐west Europe only pulled ahead of the Yangzi Delta after 1700, both the positive trend of GDP per capita in north‐west Europe after 1700 and the negative

Dental resin composites generate microparticles and impact on gingival keratinocytes—In vitro study
Abstract Along with our increased understanding of the spread of microplastic pollution, the awareness of microparticle release from medical and dental materials has increased. Still, their effects on human health are largely unknown. As the use of resin composite materials in dentistry continues to increase, it is essential to understand the formation
