Crime prediction through urban metrics and statistical learning

, 2018
Understanding the causes of crime is a longstanding issue in researcher's agenda. While it is a hard task to extract causality from data, several linear models have been proposed to predict crime through the existing correlations between crime and urban ...

Artificial Intelligence in Autonomous Mobile Robot Navigation: From Classical Approaches to Intelligent Adaptation

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping autonomous mobile robot navigation beyond classical pipelines. This review analyzes how AI techniques are integrated into core navigation tasks, including path planning and control, localization and mapping, perception, and context‐aware decision‐making. Learning‐based, probabilistic, and soft‐computing methods

Paclobutrazol improves leaf carbon-use efficiency by increasing mesophyll conductance rate, while abscisic acid antagonizes this increased rate

Photosynthetica, 2020
Our experiment was conducted to understand the effects of foliar sprays of paclobutrazol (PBZ), its mixture with abscisic acid (ABA), or water (control) on leaf carbon-use efficiency (CUEl), photosynthesis, and respiration of Euonymus japonicus seedlings.

Uncovering renewable energy policy impact channels on land values, the local farm structure, and farmland heterogeneity

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Germany's Renewable Energy Sources Act (REA), enacted in 2000 and subsequently amended, subsidized national renewable energy production with fixed feed‐in tariffs for renewable energy sources (RE) from wind, solar, and biogas. Empirical studies suggest that the policy was creating windfall effects for landowners and attribute farmland use ...

The Impact of Job Strain on Occupational Access to Firearms and Firearm‐Related Suicide Among US Workers

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Firearm‐related suicide rates are notably high among workers such as police officers and farmers. One risk factor is occupational access to firearms, but other occupational characteristics, such as job strain, are less understood.

Sustaining Urban Forests

Arboriculture & Urban Forestry, 2003
AbstractThe significance of the urban forest resource and the powerful forces for change in the urban environment make sustainability a critical issue in urban forest management. The diversity, connectedness, and dynamics of the urban forest establish the context for management that will determine the sustainability of forest structure, health ...

Urban Deforestation and Urban Development [PDF]

This paper has developed a model of a single forest owner operating with perfect foresight in a dynamic open-city environment that allows for switching between alternative competing land uses (forest and urban use) at some point in the future.

Genetic Risk and High Burden of Depression and Suicide in the Maya‐Mestizo Population of Yucatán, México

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Major depression and suicide are critical public health concerns, particularly in underrepresented populations with unique genetic and sociocultural contexts. The Maya‐mestizo population presents the highest suicide rates in the country but remains understudied in psychiatric genetics. This study evaluated the association between three genetic

Housing as Asset‐Based Welfare in Australia: An Investigation Through a Consumption Lens

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Housing asset‐based welfare has long been a key component of Australia's social policy. This resonates with a parallel literature identifying a trade‐off between homeownership and the size of nations' welfare states, wherein owner‐occupiers in smaller welfare states tend to come to rely on housing wealth to meet many of their welfare needs ...
