description: Context: Providing health care in remote and very remote areas has long been a major concern in Indonesia. In order to improveaccess to quality health care for residents in these areas, various policies on recruitment and deployment of health workers have beenimplemented, among them compulsory service, contracted staff and the Special Assignment of strategic health workers.Issue: Indonesia’s difficult geography presents great challenges to health service delivery and most health workers prefer to serve inurban areas, resulting in an uneven distribution of health workers and shortages in remote areas. Great efforts have been made tomobilize health human resources more equitably, including placement schemes for strategic health workers and contracted staff,combined with an incentive scheme. While these have partially addressed the severe shortage of health workers in remote areas,current government policies were reviewed in order to clarify the current situation in Indonesia.Lessons learned: The Contracted Staff and Special Assignment of Strategic Health Workers programs show have made asignificant contribution to improving the availability of health workers in Indonesia’s remote areas. As these two programs usedfinancial incentives as the main intervention, other non-financial interventions should also be trialed. For example, incentives such asthe promise of a civil servant appointment or the provision of continuing professional education, as well as the recruitment of ruralbackgroundhealth workers may increase the willingness of health staff to serve in the remote and very remote areas of Indonesia.
Perivascular pathways of CSF flow through the spinal cord

description: Syringomyelia is a condition that is characterized by fluid containing cavities within the spinal cord. It is believed that the formation of syringomyelia is linked to the imbalance in the inflow and outflow of CSF in the spinal cord. Previous studies indicate that the perivascular spaces play an important role in the fluid outflow pathways in the spinal cord. In a study of the fluid flow pathways in the brain, it was demonstrated that the fluid inflow pathways are via periarteriolar spaces and outflow is from perivenular spaces. We know these pathways exist in the brain parenchyma, however, we do not know if the same fluid outflow pathways exist in the spinal cord. The aim of this study was to investigate the CSF outflow pathways and fluid flow from the gray matter in a normal spinal cord. To achieve this we first optimized a method which allowed movement of CSF to be followed from the spinal cord parenchyma. A fluorescent tracer (Ovalbumin Alexa Fluor 647) was injected into the gray matter of the spinal cord in Sprague-Dawley rats. Immunohistochemistry was performed using Rat endothelial cell antibody and smooth muscle actin to differentiate between all the blood vessels. This study showed that this technique can be used reliably to assess the outflow pathways in the spinal cord. Contrary to previous reports of the outflow pathways in the brain, the preliminary in the spinal cord suggested that the tracer was found to label all the blood vessels in the gray matter of the spinal cord. This indicated that the outflow in the spinal cord occurred along perivenular and periarteriolar spaces and the capillaries, into the vasculature. Further work with a larger cohort is required to gain a better understanding of the outflow pathways in the spinal cord.

description: We report that synthetic antiferromagnets (SAFs) can be efficiently switched by spin-orbit torques (SOTs) and the switching scheme does not obey the usual SOT switching rule. We show that both the positive and negative spin Hall angle (SHA)-like switching can be observed in Pt/SAF structures with only positive SHA, depending on the strength of applied in-plane fields. A new switching mechanism directly arising from the asymmetric domain expansion is proposed to explain the anomalous switching behaviors. Contrary to the macrospin-based switching model that the SOT switching direction is determined by the sign of SHA, the new switching mechanism suggests that the SOT switching direction is dominated by the field-modulated domain wall motion and can be reversed even with the same sign of SHA. The new switching mechanism is further confirmed by the domain wall motion measurements. The anomalous switching behaviors provide important insights for understanding SOT switching mechanisms and also offer novel features for applications.

description: Spherical structures built from uni- and multilamellar lipid bilayers (LUV and MLV) are nowadays considered not just as nanocarriers of various kinds of therapeutics, but also as the vehicles that, when coupled with gold (Au) nanoparticles (NPs), can also serve as a tool for imaging and discriminating healthy and diseased tissues. Since the presence of Au NPs or their aggregates may affect the properties of the drug delivery vehicle, we investigated how the shape and position of Au NP aggregates adsorbed on the surface of MLV affect the arrangement and conformation of lipid molecules. By preparing MLVs constituted from 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) in the presence of uncoated Au NP aggregates found i) both within liposome core and on the surface of the outer lipid bilayer, or ii) adsorbed on the outer lipid bilayer surface only, we demonstrated the maintenance of lipid bilayer integrity by microscopic techniques (cryo-TEM, and AFM). The employment of SERS and FTIR-ATR techniques enabled us not only to elucidate the lipid interaction pattern and their orientation in regards to Au NP aggregates but also unequivocally confirmed the impact of Au NP aggregates on the persistence/breaking of van der Waals interactions between hydrocarbon chains of DPPC.

description: Efficient data transmission and reasonable task allocation are important to improve multi-robot exploration efficiency. However, most communication data types typically contain redundant information and thus require massive communication volume. Moreover, exploration-oriented task allocation is far from trivial and becomes even more challenging for resource-limited unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). In this paper, we propose a fast and communication-efficient multi-UAV exploration method for exploring large environments. We first design a multi-robot dynamic topological graph (MR-DTG) consisting of nodes representing the explored and exploring regions and edges connecting nodes. Supported by MR-DTG, our method achieves efficient communication by only transferring the necessary information required by exploration planning. To further improve the exploration efficiency, a hierarchical multi-UAV exploration method is devised using MR-DTG. Specifically, the \emph{graph Voronoi partition} is used to allocate MR-DTG's nodes to the closest UAVs, considering the actual motion cost, thus achieving reasonable task allocation. To our knowledge, this is the first work to address multi-UAV exploration using \emph{graph Voronoi partition}. The proposed method is compared with a state-of-the-art method in simulations. The results show that the proposed method is able to reduce the exploration time and communication volume by up to 38.3\% and 95.5\%, respectively. Finally, the effectiveness of our method is validated in the real-world experiment with 6 UAVs. We will release the source code to benefit the community.

TD-MQTT: Transparent Distributed MQTT Brokers for Horizontal IoT Applications

description: MQTT (Message Queuing Telemetry Transport) has become the perfect messaging protocol for IoT (Internet of Things) systems since it is the lightest protocol designed for low bandwidth, high-latency, unreliable networks. Today, the strategy of distributing several MQTT brokers on the networks is widely used because the strategy of using a single broker is no longer efficient. However, in the distributing architectures of MQTT brokers, a subscriber should have prior knowledge about the address of the broker that publishes the data on the topics of interest. In this paper, we tackle this challenge by proposing a mechanism that connects the subscribers to the brokers in a transparent way. The proposed approach, known as TD-MQTT (Transparent Distributed MQTT brokers), requires no prior knowledge of the brokers by the subscribers. The data will be carried automatically from brokers that can change their configuration and location. The transparency will help to use IoT data without worrying about their location and dynamic configuration changes. To evaluate our approach, we compared it with the basic distributed MQTT and the EMMA (MQTT Middle-ware for Edge Computing Applications) approach. The results of the evaluation show that TD-MQTT is much better than the standard MQTT, especially in terms of response time.

description: Federal contemporary education reform such as President Obama’s Promise initiatives construct and circulate crisis discourse that promotes a moral obligation among local actors to intervene in remaking targeted locations for capital accumulation and economic growth. The Promise discourse coupled with promising practices carry harmful flows that erases and alters the memory of place. The local Promise Zone construction is, in its implementation, a colonial act that devalues local knowledges and views space as empty, ripe for the extraction of labor, knowledge and resources. Black musical aesthetics and intellectual traditions are centered as a form of social investigation to name the coloniality inherent in the deficit-oriented, data-driven discourse of contemporary education reform initiatives. This research explored the spatial imagination and knowledge within collaborative community change initiatives constituted by the local Promise Zone designation. Afrosonic inspired educational research in the Pan-Afrikan intellectual tradition centered the process of inquiry in collaborative community change spaces to understand the ideological acceptance of normalized knowledges that rationalizes disparity, deprivation and destruction in the reconfiguration of social-material reality. Pedagogical and theoretical tools were established to inform a praxis of librarianship and genre of collaborative community change conceptualized as SONAR and a student/intellectual-artist identity. The research literally and figuratively digs in the repository of creative intellectual texts, listens to the local/global knowledge and discourse, chops and layers samples and puts them in the mix to turn the table(s) on normative knowledge systems and structures toward decolonizing the architecture of knowledge for health and wellbeing. Conceptualizations of SONAR and student/intellectual-artist actively listens to sounds, silences, voices and rhythms to inform collection building and encourage knowledge-making activities that address complex local/global challenges. The knowledge-making practice of SONAR opens conceptual space for student/intellectual-artists to engage in critical dialogue, autonomous learning and imagination. SONAR is a form of storytelling, a mixtape (soundtrack) of community learning and change.

description: Low Noise Amplifiers(LNA) are electronic circuits that provide high gain but maintain as low noise as possible. LNA is one of the main building blocks of the RF receiver circuit. It is used at the front-end of the receiver. These receivers require high-performance LNA with wide bandwidth, high gain and low noise.This report presents the design of a LNA operating over 14.3 GHz to 37.46 GHz,with midband gain of 18.25 dB at around 25 GHz. This circuit can be used for Ku-Ka band receiver application. The circuit is designed using IHP SG25H1 library (0.25 μm SiGe BiCMOS technology). The proposed LNA design consistsof two stages. In the first stage, a cascode topology is used followed by thea common-emitter stage. The aim for this LNA design was to achieve a wide operating bandwidth, with at least 15 dB of gain and noise figure below 5dB. The simulation results for designed LNA meets the above mentioned specifications. All the simulations are done in AWR. The useful formula and theory are also included in this report.

Partial waves in $B_s^* \bar B_s^*$ production in $e^+e^-$ annihilation near threshold

description: The production of the vector meson pairs $B_s^* \bar B_s^*$ in the $e^+e^-$ annihilation is generally contributed by two $P$ wave amplitudes with different total spin $S$ of the mesons, $S=0$ and $S=2$, and also by an $F$ wave amplitude. Belle has recently reported a study of the available data at the energy of the $Υ(5S)$ peak in terms of the two $P$ wave contributions only. It is argued here that although at this energy the $F$ wave should be quite suppressed, especially for the strange-bottom vector mesons, the particular studied angular distribution is very sensitive to a presence of even small $F$ wave amplitude due to a significant interference with the dominant $S=2$ $P$ wave. Thus the available data are not conclusive with regards to the partial wave structure of the production amplitude. Additional angular correlations are discussed that can be measured for a full amplitude analysis of the production process.

description: Nearly 70 Ground Level Enhancements (GLEs) of cosmic rays have been recorded by the worldwide neutron monitor network since the 1950s depicting a big variety of energy spectra of solar energetic particles (SEP). Here we studied a statistical relation between the event-integrated intensity of GLEs (calculated as count-rate relative excess, averaged over all available polar neutron monitors, and expressed in percent-hours) and the hardness of the solar particle energy spectra. For each event the integral omnidirectional event-integrated fluences of particles with energy above 30 MeV ($F_{30}$) and above 200 MeV ($F_{200}$) were computed using the reconstructed spectra, and the ratio between the two fluences was considered as a simple index of the event's hardness. We also provided a justification of the spectrum estimate in the form of the Band-function, using direct PAMELA data for GLE 71 (17-May-2012). We found that, while there is no clear relation between the intensity and the hardness for weak events, all strong events with the intensity greater 100 \%*hr are characterized by a very hard spectrum. This implies that a hard spectrum can be securely assumed for all extreme GLE events, e.g., those studied using cosmogenic isotope data in the past.

description: Current recommender systems exploit user and item similarities by collaborative filtering. Some advanced methods also consider the temporal evolution of item ratings as a global background process. However, all prior methods disregard the individual evolution of a user's experience level and how this is expressed in the user's writing in a review community. In this paper, we model the joint evolution of user experience, interest in specific item facets, writing style, and rating behavior. This way we can generate individual recommendations that take into account the user's maturity level (e.g., recommending art movies rather than blockbusters for a cinematography expert). As only item ratings and review texts are observables, we capture the user's experience and interests in a latent model learned from her reviews, vocabulary and writing style. We develop a generative HMM-LDA model to trace user evolution, where the Hidden Markov Model (HMM) traces her latent experience progressing over time -- with solely user reviews and ratings as observables over time. The facets of a user's interest are drawn from a Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) model derived from her reviews, as a function of her (again latent) experience level. In experiments with five real-world datasets, we show that our model improves the rating prediction over state-of-the-art baselines, by a substantial margin. We also show, in a use-case study, that our model performs well in the assessment of user experience levels.

description: We conjecture a formula for the Schur index of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ theories coupled to $(2,2)$ surface defects in terms of the $2d$-$4d$ BPS spectrum in the Coulomb phase of the theory. The key ingredient in our conjecture is a refined $2d$-$4d$ wall-crossing invariant, which we also formulate. Our result intertwines recent conjectures expressing the four-dimensional Schur index in terms of infrared BPS particles, with the Cecotti-Vafa formula for limits of the elliptic genus in terms of two-dimensional BPS solitons. We extend our discussion to framed $2d$-$4d$ BPS states, and use this to demonstrate a general relationship between surface defect indices and line defect indices. We illustrate our results in the example of $SU(2)$ super Yang-Mills coupled to the $\mathbb{CP}^1$ sigma model defect.

description: A cochleate formulation was developed to enhance the oral bioavailability of revaprazan (RVP). Dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine (DMPC) liposome containing dicetyl phosphate (DCP) successfully formed a cochleate after treatment with CaCl2, whereas that containing sodium deoxycholate did not. Cochleate was optimised using a D-optimal mixture design with three independent variables—DMPC (X1, 70.58 mol%), cholesterol (X2, 22.54 mol%), and DCP (X3, 6.88 mol%)—and three response variables: encapsulation efficiency (Y1, 76.92%), released amount of free fatty acid at 2 h (Y2, 39.82%), and released amount of RVP at 6 h (Y3, 73.72%). The desirability function was 0.616, showing an excellent agreement between the predicted and experimental values. The cylindrical morphology of the optimised cochleate was visualised, and laurdan spectroscopy confirmed the dehydrated membrane interface, showing an increased generalised polarisation value (approximately 0.5) over small unilamellar vesicle of RVP (RVP-SUV; approximately 0.1). The optimised cochleate showed greater resistance to pancreatic enzyme than RVP-SUV. RVP was released in a controlled manner, achieving approximately 94% release in 12 h. Following oral administration in rats, the optimised cochleate improved the relative bioavailability of RVP by approximately 274%, 255%, and 172% compared to RVP suspension, a physical mixture of RVP and the cochleate, and RVP-SUV, respectively. Thus, the optimised cochleate formulation might be a good candidate for the practical development of RVP.

description: Given a locally cartesian closed regular category ξ we may form the bicategories of relations, spans and ploynomials. We show that for each hom-category, relations are a reflective subcategory of spans, and spans are a coreflective subcategory of ploynomials (with cartesian 2-cells). We then use these local reflections and coreflections to derive the universal property of relations from that of spans, and construct a right adjoint to the inclusion of spans into polynomials in the 2-category of bicategories, lax functors and icons. Moreover, we show that this right adjoint becomes a pseudofunctor if we restrict ourselves to polynomials for which the middle map is a monomorphism, or alternatively if we restrict ourselves to polynomials for which this map is a regular epimorphism.

description: The cosmological evolution of standard model Yukawa couplings may have major implications for baryogenesis. In particular, as highlighted recently, the CKM matrix alone could be the source of CP-violation during electroweak baryogenesis provided that the Yukawa couplings were large and varied during the electroweak phase transition. We provide a natural realisation of this idea in the context of Randall-Sundrum models and show that the geometrical warped approach to the fermion mass hierarchy may naturally display the desired cosmological dynamics. The key ingredient is the coupling of the Goldberger-Wise scalar, responsible for the IR brane stabilisation, to the bulk fermions, which modifies the fermionic profiles. This also helps alleviating the usually tight constraints from CP-violation in Randall-Sundrum scenarios. We study how the Yukawa couplings vary during the stabilisation of the Randall-Sundrum geometry and can thus induce large CP-violation during the electroweak phase transition. Using holography, we discuss the 4D interpretation of this dynamical interplay between flavour and electroweak symmetry breaking.

description: Epidemiologists commonly use the risk ratio to summarize the relationship between a binary covariate and outcome, even when outcomes may be dependent. Investigations of transmissible diseases in clusters—households, villages or small groups—often report risk ratios. Epidemiologists have warned that risk ratios may be misleading when outcomes are contagious, but the nature of this error is poorly understood. In this study, we assess the meaning of the risk ratio when outcomes are contagious. We provide a mathematical definition of infectious disease transmission within clusters, based on the canonical stochastic susceptible-infective model. From this characterization, we define the individual-level ratio of instantaneous infection risks as the inferential target, and evaluate the properties of the risk ratio as an approximation of this quantity. We exhibit analytically and by simulation the circumstances under which the risk ratio implies an effect whose direction is opposite that of the true effect of the covariate. In particular, the risk ratio can be greater than one even when the covariate reduces both individual-level susceptibility to infection, and transmissibility once infected. We explain these findings in the epidemiologic language of confounding and Simpson's paradox, underscoring the pitfalls of failing to account for transmission when outcomes are contagious.
A qualitative examination of the relationship between organizational resilience and post-merger integration in the airline industry

description: Whilst the popularity of merger and acquisitions (M&A), as a method for achieving several corporate strategic goals persists, so too does the high failure rate of this activity. The extant literature frequently attributes M&A failure to post-merger integration (PMI) issues.Therefore, understanding the organizational capabilities and characteristics that enable or inhibit PMI is a key challenge for M&A scholarship. Within PMI scholarship, a specific under-examined issue concerns the link between post-merger integration (which creates uncertainties within the participating organizations) and organizational resilience (the study of how such uncertainties can be better managed). Organizational resilience can be broadly understood as the ability to bounce-back from failure or adversity. To date, there has been limited work that connects resilience and PMI, and existing research tends to focus upon how M&A affects employee resilience, rather than the role of resilience at the organization level for PMI processes and outcomes. This research provides an improved understanding of relationships between organizational resilience and PMI processes and outcomes by drawing on empirical research conducted in the airline industry. The airline industry is selected because it is a large, complex and global industry within which M&A activity is frequently undertaken. Key contributions are three-fold. First, this research bridges the gap between two fields which are currently theoretically disconnected and where an integrated theorization has significant potential to inform both future research and advance practice. Second, by identifying how organizational resilience relates to PMI, the empirical analysis informs the creation of a novel inductive model and a set of associated propositions which can be used to frame future research.Third, for practice audiences, the project’s findings suggest a range of organizational interventions that could support organizations in navigating the uncertainty inherent inPMI.

This inequality is shown to be tight in the sense that equality can be attained for every prescribed value of the trace norm distance. It includes the sharp Fannes inequality for von Neumann entropy as a special case.

description: Solar energetic particles acceleration by a shock wave accompanying a coronal mass ejection (CME) is studied. The description of the accelerated particle spectrum evolution is based on the numerical calculation of the diffusive transport equation with a set of realistic parameters. The relation between the CME and the shock speeds, which depend on the initial CME radius, is determined. Depending on the initial CME radius, its speed, and the magnetic energy of the scattering Alfven waves, the accelerated particle spectrum is established during 10-60 minutes from the beginning of CME motion. The maximum energies of particles reach 0.1-10 GeV. The CME radii of 3-5 $R_\odot$ and the shock radii of 5-10 $R_\odot$ agree with observations. The calculated particle spectra agree with the observed ones in events registered by ground-based detectors if the turbulence spectrum in the solar corona significantly differs from the Kolmogorov one.

description: Epidemiologists commonly use the risk ratio to summarize the relationship between a binary covariate and outcome, even when outcomes may be dependent. Investigations of transmissible diseases in clusters—households, villages or small groups—often report risk ratios. Epidemiologists have warned that risk ratios may be misleading when outcomes are contagious, but the nature of this error is poorly understood. In this study, we assess the meaning of the risk ratio when outcomes are contagious. We provide a mathematical definition of infectious disease transmission within clusters, based on the canonical stochastic susceptible-infective model. From this characterization, we define the individual-level ratio of instantaneous infection risks as the inferential target, and evaluate the properties of the risk ratio as an approximation of this quantity. We exhibit analytically and by simulation the circumstances under which the risk ratio implies an effect whose direction is opposite that of the true effect of the covariate. In particular, the risk ratio can be greater than one even when the covariate reduces both individual-level susceptibility to infection, and transmissibility once infected. We explain these findings in the epidemiologic language of confounding and Simpson's paradox, underscoring the pitfalls of failing to account for transmission when outcomes are contagious.

description: This paper is concerned with variational continuation of branches of solutions for nonlinear boundary value problems, which involve the p-Laplacian, the indefinite nonlinearity, and depend on the real parameter $λ$. A special focus is made on the extreme value of Nehari manifold $λ^*$, which determines the threshold of applicability of Nehari manifold method. In the main result the existence of two branches of positive solutions for the cases where parameter $λ$ lies above the threshold $λ^*$ is obtained.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: Intelligent autonomous systems are part of a system of systems that interact with other agents to accomplish tasks in complex environments. However, intelligent autonomous systems integrated system of systems add additional layers of complexity based on their limited cognitive processes, specifically shared situation awareness that allows a team to respond to novel tasks. Intelligent autonomous systems' lack of shared situation awareness adversely influences team effectiveness in complex task environments, such as military command-and-control. A complementary approach of shared situation awareness, called situations theory, is beneficial for understanding the relationship between system of systems shared situation awareness and effectiveness. The current study elucidates a conceptual discussion on situations theory to investigate the development of an system of systems shared situational awareness when humans team with intelligent autonomous system agents. To ground the discussion, the reviewed studies expanded situations theory within the context of a system of systems that result in three major conjectures that can be beneficial to the design and development of future systems of systems.

description: Next year we will celebrate 100 years of the cosmological term, $Λ$, in Einstein's gravitational field equations, also 50 years since the cosmological constant problem was first formulated by Zeldovich, and almost about two decades of the observational evidence that a non-vanishing, positive, $Λ$-term could be the simplest phenomenological explanation for the observed acceleration of the Universe. This mixed state of affairs already shows that we do no currently understand the theoretical nature of $Λ$. In particular, we are still facing the crucial question whether $Λ$ is truly a fundamental constant or a mildly evolving dynamical variable. At this point the matter should be settled once more empirically and, amazingly enough, the wealth of observational data at our disposal can presently shed true light on it. In this short review I summarize the situation of some of these studies. It turns out that the $Λ=$const. hypothesis, despite being the simplest, may well not be the most favored one when we put it in hard-fought competition with specific dynamical models of the vacuum energy. Recently it has been shown that the overall fit to the cosmological observables $SNIa+BAO+H(z)+LSS+BBN+CMB$ do favor the class of "running" vacuum models (RVM's) -- in which $Λ=Λ(H)$ is a function of the Hubble rate -- against the "concordance" $Λ$CDM model. The support is at an unprecedented level of $\sim4σ$ and is backed up with Akaike and Bayesian criteria leading to compelling evidence in favor of the RVM option and other related dynamical vacuum models. I also address the implications of this framework on the possible time evolution of the fundamental constants of Nature.

description: Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) have been successfully applied in various aerial scenes, yet they face challenges with sparse views due to limited supervision. The acquisition of dense aerial views is often prohibitive, as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) may encounter constraints in perspective range and energy constraints. In this work, we introduce Multiplane Prior guided NeRF (MPNeRF), a novel approach tailored for few-shot aerial scene rendering-marking a pioneering effort in this domain. Our key insight is that the intrinsic geometric regularities specific to aerial imagery could be leveraged to enhance NeRF in sparse aerial scenes. By investigating NeRF's and Multiplane Image (MPI)'s behavior, we propose to guide the training process of NeRF with a Multiplane Prior. The proposed Multiplane Prior draws upon MPI's benefits and incorporates advanced image comprehension through a SwinV2 Transformer, pre-trained via SimMIM. Our extensive experiments demonstrate that MPNeRF outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods applied in non-aerial contexts, by tripling the performance in SSIM and LPIPS even with three views available. We hope our work offers insights into the development of NeRF-based applications in aerial scenes with limited data.
