The Potential of Cognitive‐Inspired Neural Network Modeling Framework for Computer Vision

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In article number 202507730, Guorun Li, Lei Liu, Yuefeng Du, and co‐workers present a cognitive modeling framework (CMF) to bridge the ‘representation gap’ and ‘conceptual gap’ between cognitive theory and vision deep neural networks (VDNNs). The research findings provide new insights and solid theoretical support for VDNN modeling inspired by ...

Synthesis and biological profile of 2,3-dihydro[1,3]thiazolo[4,5-b]pyridines, a novel class of acyl-ACP thioesterase inhibitors

Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry
The present work covers novel herbicidal lead structures that contain a 2,3-dihydro[1,3]thiazolo[4,5-b]pyridine scaffold as structural key feature carrying a substituted phenyl side chain. These new compounds show good acyl-ACP thioesterase inhibition in

King and Cochrane: The technological treadmill and racial inequity in US agriculture

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract Between 1920 and 1969, the number of Black farmers in the US decreased from 14% of all operators to 4%. Using Martin Luther King Jr.'s critique of agricultural policy and Willard Cochrane's theory of the technological treadmill, we explore how racial discrimination was linked to policies that led to structural change in US agriculture.

Examining the Impact of Row Planting on Labor Use for Sustainable Food Production Among Maize Farmers in Rural Ghana

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Smallholder farmers are reverting to traditional production methods due to the high opportunity costs and unintended consequences of new technologies. This study focuses on row planting technology, which is labor‐intensive and slow without mechanized operations.
