Unsupervised Work Behavior Pattern Extraction Based on Hierarchical Probabilistic Model
In this study, we address the challenge of analyzing worker behaviors in high‐mix, low‐volume production environments, where traditional supervised learning methods struggle owing to the lack of labeled data and task variability among workers. To overcome these issues, we propose a novel hierarchical approach for unsupervised behavior pattern ...

Abstract Background Veterinarians in clinical practice, especially early‐career veterinarians and those identifying as women, have higher levels of negative mental health outcomes compared to the general population. Partnering with a mentor can mitigate some of the work‐related challenges that may contribute to poor mental health and career attrition ...

Evaluation of drones as a tool for multi‐species nest surveys on linear rights‐of‐way
This paper examines the use of drones with infrared cameras as a tool in the detection of bird nests on linear rights‐of‐way, in comparison to standard ground‐based nest surveys. Abstract The varying application of drone use in wildlife research has expanded in recent years. With the ability to utilize a variety of different sensors (e.g., infrared [IR]
