Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Uncrewed underwater vehicles (UUVs) have transformed oceanographic research through autonomous data gathering. Similarly, lake and other aquatic research can potentially be automated and transformed. However, UUVs would need to be smaller, lighter, less complex, and cheaper than currently available to make them more practical and user‐friendly

Development of Recovery System for Underwater Glider
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 This study proposes a novel autonomous system that is able to retrieve an underwater glider safely and quickly. After a long-period mission, the glider is out of its energy, floats up in the middle of the sea, and needs retrieval.

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.Birds involved in bird shows were compared against non‐show birds regarding show paticipation, behaviour, body score condiiton, and feather condition. Additionally, comparisons between on and off show days as well as before and after the show were made to investigate differences in behaviour and condition. Show birds demonstrated a closer to ideal body

PBR‐Inspired Controllable Diffusion for Image Generation
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.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 ...
