Machine learning‐driven advances in carbon‐based quantum dots: Opportunities accompanied by challenges

Responsive Materials, EarlyView.
Machine learning provides a unifying framework to connect structure, fluorescence properties, and applications of carbon‐based quantum dots. This review highlights how data‐driven strategies enable fluorescence regulation, reveal underlying mechanisms, and accelerate the rational design of functional carbon dots.

Sand in the Wheels: Corruption, Governance, and the Quest for Sustainable Development in Sub‐Saharan Africa

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT How do governance quality and corruption jointly shape sustainable development? We analyze an unbalanced panel of 38 Sub‐Saharan African countries (2002–2021) employing PCSE and FGLS estimators. The model also includes controls for health expenditure, digitalization, unemployment, trade openness, and GDP.

Challenges to Attaining the SDG 2 (Zero Hunger) and Future Projections: The Criticality of Types of Corruption, Human Rights, and Greenhouse Gas Emissions for Selected Asian Countries

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT By the mid‐21st century, the global economic system had not yet fully solved the problem of hunger. Therefore, achieving SDG 2 (Zero Hunger), one of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), is crucial. This study therefore aims to examine the factors that may lead to hunger in seven selected Asian countries (Afghanistan, Bangladesh ...

What's Inside the Green Bag? An Analysis of the Eco‐Design Options and a Visual Tool for the Development of Sustainable Fashion Accessories

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Integrating eco‐design practices in product development from the start is essential for fashion accessories like bags and backpacks, which involve complex manufacturing, diverse materials, and strong socio‐cultural meanings. Building on this premise and drawing from the Lifecycle Design Strategy Wheel, this study aims to characterize the eco ...

FEWT: Frequency‐Enhanced Wavelet‐Based Transformer for Multimodal Wheeled Bimanual Manipulation

SmartBot, EarlyView.
An embodied mobile bimanual robot learns dexterous manipulation skills through imitation learning with multimodal perception. The integration of vision, proprioception, and tactile sensing establishes a comprehensive perception–action loop, enabling the robot to continuously understand, interact with, and adapt to complex physical environments.

A Review on the Development and Key Technologies of Embodied Intelligent Industrial Robots in Smart Manufacturing

SmartBot, EarlyView.
Conventional industrial robots rely on predefined workflows and struggle to adapt to changing tasks and uncertain manufacturing environments. This review examines the development and key technologies of embodied intelligent industrial robots (EIIRs), highlighting a closed‐loop architecture that integrates human and industrial inputs, embodied ...

Detection and Inhalation Hazard Assessment of Wear Particles Arising From Abrasion of Market‐relevant Graphene Reinforced Composites

Small, EarlyView.
Abrasion of few‐layer graphene (FLG)–epoxy composites generated respirable particles in which FLG remained fully embedded, as confirmed by correlative HR‑TEM, Raman, and ToF‑SIMS analyses. Advanced lung cell models revealed no cytotoxic or inflammatory responses, and only high‑dose epoxy particles reduced mucociliary clearance.

The Allais Paradox and Upside/Downside Risk Preference: An Experimental Analysis With Probability Weighting and Chernoff Faces

Southern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Allais Paradox is often attributed to the strong attraction of a certain option that avoids a downside risk, i.e., a small chance of a low payoff. In contrast, there is clear evidence from laboratory and field data that people are attracted to the upside risk of obtaining a relatively high payoff.

Assessing Soft Reduction Effects on Centerline Macrosegregation in Continuous Casting Using Five Evaluation Metrics

steel research international, EarlyView.
A comprehensive framework using five complementary metrics: macroetch assessment, 2D SMXRF mapping, 1D composition profiles, the segregation coefficient (Sc), and the maximum segregation value (Vmax) is presented for evaluating centerline macrosegregation in continuously cast steel slabs.

Microplastics in the menu of Mediterranean zooplankton: Insights from the feeding response of the calanoid copepod Centropages typicus

Marine Ecology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Microplastic input into the ocean represents an increasing threat to marine biota and may endanger the functioning of marine ecosystems, especially in semi‐enclosed basins, such as the Mediterranean Sea. The size spectrum of microplastics overlaps with that of nano‐microplankton (2–200 μm), thus potentially misleading suspension‐feeding ...
