Regional Disparities in Case Volumes and Surgeon Distribution in Gastroenterological Surgery

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Regional disparities in surgical resources may influence the delivery and sustainability of gastroenterological surgery, particularly in countries experiencing rapid population aging and depopulation. Methods This nationwide cross‐sectional study used data from the Japanese National Clinical Database to examine temporal trends (2013–

Autonomous X‐Ray Fluorescence Mapping for Nanoscale Chemical Speciation of Fine Particulate Matter

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
We present X‐AutoMap, an autonomous X‐ray fluorescence mapping framework that integrates real‐time analysis with rule‐based computer vision to selectively target chemically relevant regions. By avoiding background‐dominated areas, the method reduces acquisition time by fourfold while enabling accurate particle‐level speciation.

Lidar‐Based Object Tracking of Traffic Participants with Sensor Nodes in Existing Urban Infrastructure

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This paper presents a lidar‐based sensor node design and a rule‐based state observer for edge‐based traffic participant tracking. Unlike other state‐of‐the‐art methods, this state observer enables real‐time, CPU‐only edge processing without relying on machine learning approaches.

Talk to Your Data: An Agentic Artificial Intelligence‐Driven Decision‐Support Framework for Prosumer Energy Optimization and Recommendations

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
An agentic AI‐driven decision‐support framework for prosumers is proposed, integrating PV generation, load profiling, and multihorizon optimization within a four‐agent architecture. The approach significantly reduces grid dependence, enhances self‐sufficiency and prevents system oversizing.

Enhanced Monocular Depth Estimation Using ResNet Backbone and Multiscale Feature Decoding for Precise Object Distance Measurement

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A lightweight monocular perception framework generates high‐fidelity depth maps and integrates YOLOv8 detection to estimate object‐wise distances from a single RGB image. Evaluated on KITTI and the proposed D‐Far250 dataset, the system demonstrates accurate long‐range perception up to 250 m while maintaining real‐time performance, enabling scalable ...

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 ...

Lost in aggregation? On the importance of local food price data for food poverty estimates

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores within‐country variations in food price dynamics and food poverty estimates by employing local market price data and national consumer price index (CPI) data. Our results show that national CPI data may be useful for approximating national trends but they fail to detect and identify spatial variations in local trends, which
