U.S. Consumer Preferences for Cage‐Free Eggs and Hen Housing Policies

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Farm animal welfare (FAW) continues to be a divisive issue in the egg industry. In the United States, 10 states and most major retailers have implemented policies or voluntary pledges to transition to 100% cage‐free egg sales. We use best‐worst scaling and discrete choice experiments to evaluate U.S.

Adversarial Erasing Enhanced Multiple Instance Learning (siMILe): Discriminative Identification of Oligomeric Protein Structures in Single Molecule Localization Microscopy

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Hallgrimson et al. introduce a machine learning algorithm, siMILe, that takes features of single‐molecule localization microscopy localization clusters (e.g., size and sphericity) and finds the clusters that are associated with certain cell conditions (such as differential protein expression or drug treatment).

NIRGB‐GS: Near‐Infrared Assisted Low‐Light Scene Reconstruction and Enhancement via Gaussian Splatting

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This article proposes NIRGB‐GS, a multimodal 3DGS variant that enables reliable 3D reconstruction and normal‐light novel‐view synthesis for extremely low‐light scenes by fusing paired near‐infrared and noisy RGB captures. High‐SNR near‐infrared modality and modality‐specific appearance encoding together resolve the issues of unstable pose/geometry ...

Interpreting How Neural Networks Infer Scatterer Geometry from Echolocation Echoes

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Neural networks enable echolocation‐based shape classification but remain difficult to interpret due to their black‐box nature. This work presents a feature‐importance metric to uncover the echo regions driving decisions in shape‐specialized networks.

Analyzing Capacity Withholding in Oligopoly Electricity Markets Considering Forward Contracts and Demand Elasticity

Iranian Journal of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, 2011
In this paper capacity withholding in an oligopolistic electricity market that all Generation Companies (GenCos) bid in a Cournot model is analyzed and the capacity withheld index, the capacity distortion index and the price distortion index are obtained
