description: The Automaton Farm Boundary Detection Platform is designed to provide an accurate, scalable, and cost- effective solution for identifying and analyzing agricultural farm boundaries in high-resolution satellite imagery. The platform leverages deep learning models, particularly YOLOv8, CNN, and DenseNet, to destect various objects essential for crop monitoring and protection.

The process begins with the input of high-resolution farm images into the YOLO v8 modal. The images are first resized to match the model’s input size and then undergo pixel normalization to standardize the data for processing. The images are passed through deep learning algorithms, which extract relevant features from the data, helping to identify key objects within the farm, such as crop types, boundaries, and other elements crucial for analysis.

description: Abstract Compared to non-Latinos whites, older Latinos are at higher risk of cognitive impairment and engage in less leisure-time physical activity (PA). Resting-state brain functional connectivity (FC) is a putative biomarker for age-related cognitive decline. PA plays a role in FC of brain networks associated with cognitive decline. Objective: Investigate the effects of the BAILAMOS™ dance program on FC in three brain networks associated with age-related cognitive decline (Default Mode [DMN], Frontoparietal [FPN], and Salience [SAL] networks). Methods: Single-group pre-post design. Ten cognitively intact older Latinos participated in the four-month (2x/week for 60min) BAILAMOS™ dance program with four Latin dance styles. MRI was obtained pre- and post-intervention. FC was analyzed using the resting-state fMRI toolbox (CONN) via pairwise BOLD signal correlations and then converted into z-scores. We performed dependent t-tests, computed Cohen’s d and 95%CI for p < 0.05. Results: Within-FPN FC significantly increased (t(9) = 2.35, p = 0.043, d = 0.70) from pre (M=0.49±0.15) to post-intervention (M=0.59±0.13). In the DMN, we observed moderate effect size changes in the ratio of the FC between-networks by the FC within-networks (Mdiff = 0.10; 95%CI = -0.01; 0.21, p = 0.08, d = 0.64). Conclusions: The BAILAMOS™ program increased within-FPN FC, which is a cognitive-control network related to adaptive control and flexibility. Moderate changes between- vs. within-DMN FC suggest BAILAMOS™ also increased whole-brain DMN integration. Taken together, results might signal that Latin dance can combat the disruption of FC between the DMN and other networks, and within-FPN, which are associated with cognitive decline.

description: The current article responds to a key puzzle and a question. First, why, given the potential for ‘rights talk’ that has been seen in other countries and other policy areas, have environmental rights in the European Union (EU) legal order been relatively invisible until recently? And second, with Daniel Kelemen’s influential work on Eurolegalism arguing that the EU has become much more reliant on United States-style adversarial legalism, including a shift towards rights-based litigation, do EU environmental rights fit the picture Kelemen has painted, or are they an exception? The article explores the visibility of EU environmental rights at EU level and then seeks to explain the possible reasons for visibility/invisibility.

description: At the request and with the cooperation of the rice industry, the United States Department of Agriculture conducted a second survey, similar to a study completed about five years ago, to determine present milled rice distribution patterns, including destination of shipments by States and territories, type of rice, kind of buyer and package information. Data were collected from rice millers and repackagers for rice distributed during the marketing years August 1, 1960 to July 31, 1961, and August 1, 1961 to July 31, 1962. As a result of continued excellent cooperation of the rice industry, it is estimated that the data in this report represent virtually all of the rice in distribution channels for direct and processed food uses. Because it is important that the rice industry and others interested in rice marketing have as much information available as soon as possible after the conclusion of a survey of this type to assist them in making marketing decisions, the basic data collected from the survey are being made available through this preliminary report. A more detailed analysis of the data will be published in a final report to be issued at a later date.

description: To examine the association between sleep duration with chronic constipation and diarrhea, we collected demographic and questionnaire data of participants from The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in the period 2005 to 2010. A restricted cubic spline curve function was used to determine the association between sleep duration and chronic constipation or diarrhea. Multivariate logistic regression models were used to estimate the association between sleep duration groups and chronic constipation or diarrhea. 14,054 eligible participants were included in this study. Among all sleep durations, 7 hours sleep per day had the highest percentage of normal stool forms (86.3%, P < .001), while people with ≤4 hours sleep had a higher number of bowel movements per week (P < .001). RCS models demonstrated a significant nonlinear association between sleep duration and risk of chronic constipation (P < .001). The inflection points of the U-shaped association curve corresponded to 7 hours of sleep per day. Multivariate logistic regression indicated that compared to participants with 7 hours daily sleep duration, participants with ≤4 hours and ≥10 hours sleep duration had a 54% (95%CI: (1.16–2.04), P = .002) and 90% (95%CI: (1.33–2.72), P < .001) higher risk of constipation, respectively. There is a non-linear association between sleep duration and the risk of chronic constipation. Our findings indicate that both shorter and longer sleep duration are associated with an increased risk of constipation.

description: In situ nurseries have been a crucial part of coral reef restoration initiatives for the past two decades. However, the advantages over direct transplantation in sedimented waters has yet to be examined. In the present study, we showed that Pachyseris speciosa and Pocillopora damicornis fragments reared in in situ nurseries (NR) in Singapore’s sedimented waters grew significantly faster (by three to five times) than those which were directly transplanted (DT) onto the substrates. The increased growth rate during the nursery phase augmented the size of NR transplants, and had a flow-on effect on their performance during the post-transplantation phase. Overall, the maximum diameter of the NR transplants was 1.8–2.7 times larger than DT transplants after 11 months. The growth enhancement of the nursery-reared transplants improved the cost-effectiveness of our restoration effort: the estimated cost per centimetre growth of NR transplants was one-fifth of the DT corals despite the additional costs incurred to construct the nurseries. These results highlight that coral nurseries are beneficial to reef restoration in chronically sedimented waters.

description: In this paper, novel flower-like hollow MoS2 microspheres (FHMs) were synthesized by a hydrothermal method using MF microspheres as template. The FHMs were hydrophobically modified and utilized as porous fillers to fabricate FHMs/acrylic resin composites through suspension polymerization. The oil-absorption tests revealed that the composite with 4 wt% FHMs had a high oil-absorption capacity, which might be due to the synergistic absorption effect of organic and inorganic components. Their high absorption capacity, rapid absorption rate, and excellent reusability make them attractive options as absorbents for practical oil/water separation.

description: Beamline optics design for recirculatory linear accelerators requires special attention to suppress beam instabilities arising due to collective effects. The impact of these collective effects becomes more pronounced with the addition of energy recovery (ER) capability. Jefferson Lab’s multi-pass, multi-GeV ER proposal for the CEBAF accelerator, ER@CEBAF, is a 10- pass ER demonstration with low beam current. Tighter control of the beam parameters at lower energies is necessary to avoid beam break-up (BBU) instabilities, even with a small beam current. Optics optimizations require balancing both beta excursions at high-energy passes and overfocusing at low-energy passes. Here, we discuss an optics optimization process for recirculatory energy-recovery linacs (ERLs) using multi-objective evolutionary search methods.

description: Objective: The objective of this work was to assess the ability of peripheral blood cell-free DNA (cfDNA) levels to identify ischaemic stroke early in the acute phase of care, as well as to examine the relationship between peripheral blood cfDNA levels and stroke-induced innate immune system activation. Methods: Upon emergency department admission, peripheral blood samples were obtained from 43 patients experiencing acute ischaemic stroke and 20 patients identified as stroke mimics. Plasma cfDNA levels were measured using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), infarct volume and NIH stroke scale (NIHSS) were used to assess injury severity, and peripheral blood neutrophil count was used as a measure of innate immune system status.Results: Peripheral blood cfDNA levels were significantly elevated in patients suffering stroke relative to those diagnosed as stroke mimics, and could differentiate between groups with 86% (95% CI = 72–95%) sensitivity and 75% (95% CI = 51–91%) specificity. Furthermore, cfDNA levels displayed significant positive associations between both infarct volume and peripheral blood neutrophil count within the stroke group. Conclusions: These findings suggest that assessment of peripheral blood cfDNA levels may be useful for the identification of ischaemic stroke in the acute care setting, and provide associative evidence that cfDNA is a potential activator of the peripheral innate immune system in response to cerebral ischaemia.

description: The numerical prediction of masonry monumental structures still represents a complex issue, due to the difficulties to adequately simulate the nonlinear cyclic response of masonry material. In principle, nonlinear finite element models (FEM) can be rigorously applied also for large monumental structures. However, these approaches still require high computational resources and specific expertise that limited their application to few academic studies or significant cases. For these reasons several researches are currently involved in the formulation and validation of alternative numerical strategies to be efficiently applied for the structural assessment of masonry monumental structures. Among the simplified approaches, a widely used strategy is the so called equivalent frame model (EQM), that received several numerical and experimental validations. In this study, after a description of the recent evolutions of the EQM, an original discrete macro-element method (DMEM), developed by the authors in the last decade, is presented. The method is based on a discrete macro-element discretization in which the interaction between the shear deformable elements is governed by zero-thickness interfaces which also rule the mechanical behaviour of the corresponding adjacent elements according to a straightforward fibre discretization strategy. The approach requires a very low computational burden, if compared to classical nonlinear FEM simulations, which allows an efficient modelling of large masonry structures as churches, monumental building or masonry arch bridges. Several comparisons with numerical and experimental results show the ability of the proposed discrete macro-element method to efficiently simulate the typical nonlinear behaviour of historical masonry structures.

description: Abstract

This research aims to analyze the factors that influence company value through asset growth, financial leverage, equity growth, and financial start-up, both directly and indirectly through financial risk and includes CSR, and moderated by GCG. This research uses a quantitative explanatory method using secondary data from 19 mining companies listed on the IDX for the 2017-2021 period, with Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis techniques, using Partial Least Square (PLS) version 3.0. The research results show that asset growth and equity growth are significant to financial risk, while financial leverage and financial leverage are not significant. Asset growth is significant to CSR closure, while financial leverage, equity growth and financial sustainability are not significant. All main variables have a significant effect on company value, with financial risk and CSR coverage as mediators. GCG is not proven to be a moderating variable.

description: Report Summary: Changes in retail merchandising practices for broilers, primarily the accelerated trend toward merchandising selected parts, has resulted in problems in selling backs, necks, and sometimes wings. A large volume of these parts are either sold at extremely low prices, or disposed of as waste. Costs involved with the unsalable parts must be included in the price customers pay for the preferred cuts and may adversely affect the total movement of broilers. The sales effectiveness of broiler quarter cuts, a practice employed by some retailers as a means of selling backs and wings (cuts in weak demand at the retail level), is evaluated in this study. Total broiler sales in retail food stores increased an average of 16 percent when the quarter cut was added to broiler displays. The normal display of whole birds, whole-cut-up birds, and individual parts (leg, breast, thighs, etc.) served as a basis of comparison in 12 supermarkets over a period of 6 weeks starting August 20, 1962. In one test city, where quarters had been advertised and merchandised prior to the study, 14 percent of broiler sales were in quarters when this cut was tested. Only 3 percent of sales were in quarters in a second market, where quarters were relatively unknown. However, in both cities, additional display area was allotted to broilers when quarters were offered. The combination of the additional cut and display area increased sales. Sales differences were not measurably affected when a label with a recipe was attached to broiler packages, a recipe leaflet was displayed at point-of-purchase, or there was no recipe material.

description: Background: In China, stroke is the leading cause of death and contributes to a heavy disease burden. However, a nationwide population-based survey of the mortality of stroke and its subtypes is lacking for this country. Methods: Data derived from the National Epidemiological Survey of Stroke in China, which was a multistage, stratified clustering sampling-designed, cross-sectional survey, were analyzed. Mortality rate analyses were performed for 476,156 participants ≥20 years old from September 1, 2012 to August 31, 2013. Results: Of the 476,156 participants in the investigated population, 364 died of ischemic stroke, 373 of hemorrhagic stroke, and 21 of stroke of undetermined pathological type. The age-standardized mortality rates per 100,000 person-years among those aged ≥20 years were 114.8 for total stroke, 56.5 for ischemic stroke, and 55.8 for hemorrhagic stroke. The age-standardized mortality rates of total stroke, ischemic stroke, and hemorrhagic stroke were all higher in rural areas than those in urban areas. The stroke mortality rate was higher in the northern regions than in the south. An estimated 1.12 million people aged ≥20 years in China died of stroke during the period from September 1, 2012 to August 31, 2013. Conclusions: The burden of stroke in China is still heavy. Greater attention should be paid to improve strategies for preventing stroke.

description: Object matching is used in various applications including conflation, data quality assessment, updating, and multi-scale analysis. The objective of matching is to identify objects referring to the same entity. This article aims to present an optimization-based linear object-matching approach in multi-scale, multi-source datasets. By taking into account geometric criteria, the proposed approach uses real coded genetic algorithm (RCGA) and sensitivity analysis to identify corresponding objects. Moreover, in this approach, any initial dependency on empirical parameters such as buffer distance, threshold of spatial similarity degree, and weights of criteria is eliminated and, instead, the optimal values for these parameters are calculated for each dataset. Volunteered geographical information (VGI) and authoritative data with different scales and sources were used to assess the efficiency of the proposed approach. According to the results, in addition to an efficient performance in various datasets, the proposed approach was able to appropriately identify the corresponding objects in these datasets by achieving higher F-Score.

description: Vision sensors are becoming more important in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) for traffic monitoring, management, and optimization as the number of network cameras continues to rise. However, manual object tracking and matching across multiple non-overlapping cameras pose significant challenges in city-scale urban traffic scenarios. These challenges include handling diverse vehicle attributes, occlusions, illumination variations, shadows, and varying video resolutions. To address these issues, we propose an efficient and cost-effective deep learning-based framework for Multi-Object Multi-Camera Tracking (MO-MCT). The proposed framework utilizes Mask R-CNN for object detection and employs Non-Maximum Suppression (NMS) to select target objects from overlapping detections. Transfer learning is employed for re-identification, enabling the association and generation of vehicle tracklets across multiple cameras. Moreover, we leverage appropriate loss functions and distance measures to handle occlusion, illumination, and shadow challenges. The final solution identification module performs feature extraction using ResNet-152 coupled with Deep SORT based vehicle tracking. The proposed framework is evaluated on the 5th AI City Challenge dataset (Track 3), comprising 46 camera feeds. Among these 46 camera streams, 40 are used for model training and validation, while the remaining six are utilized for model testing. The proposed framework achieves competitive performance with an IDF1 score of 0.8289, and precision and recall scores of 0.9026 and 0.8527 respectively, demonstrating its effectiveness in robust and accurate vehicle tracking.

description: Objective: To investigate the effects of the BAILAMOSTM dance program on physical activity (PA), cardiorespiratory, and cognitive health. Methods: A parallel, two-armed pilot study was conducted with 57 older Latinos randomized to the BAILAMOSTM dance program (n = 28) or health education (HE) (n = 29). We conducted two- and three-way repeated-measures ANOVAs. Results: BAILAMOSTM participants increased participation in leisure moderate-to-vigorous PA (LMVPA) (F[1,53] = 3.17, p = .048, η2G = .01) and performance in global cognition relative to HE participants (F[1,52] = 4.19, p = .045, η2G = .01). Attendance moderated increases in moderate PA, MVPA, LMVPA, and total PA (p < .05). Participants of both groups with ≥75% attendance increased participation in PA. Among participants with <75% attendance, BAILAMOSTM participants increased PA relative to HE. Discussion: BAILAMOSTM positively impacted self-reported PA and global cognition in older Latinos. Even smaller doses of dance appear to impact self-reported PA levels.

description: Background: The importance of vasopressin and/or urine concentration in various kidney, cardiovascular, and metabolic diseases has been emphasized recently. Due to technical constraints, urine osmolality (Uosm), a direct reflect of urinary concentrating activity, is rarely measured in epidemiologic studies. Methods: We analyzed 2 possible surrogates of Uosm in 4 large population-based cohorts (total n = 4,247) and in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD, n = 146). An estimated Uosm (eUosm) based on the concentrations of sodium, potassium, and urea, and a urine concentrating index (UCI) based on the ratio of creatinine concentrations in urine and plasma were compared to the measured Uosm (mUosm). Results: eUosm is an excellent surrogate of mUosm, with a highly significant linear relationship and values within 5% of mUosm (r = 0.99 or 0.98 in each population cohort). Bland-Altman plots show a good agreement between eUosm and mUosm with mean differences between the 2 variables within ±24 mmol/L. This was verified in men and women, in day and night urine samples, and in CKD patients. The relationship of UCI with mUosm is also significant but is not linear and exhibits more dispersed values. Moreover, the latter index is no longer representative of mUosm in patients with CKD as it declines much more quickly with declining glomerular filtration rate than mUosm. Conclusion: The eUosm is a valid marker of urine concentration in population-based and CKD cohorts. The UCI can provide an estimate of urine concentration when no other measurement is available, but should be used only in subjects with normal renal function.
Importance of Life Stage Capture in Dragonfly Specimen Digitization

description: Life stage is apparently rarely captured during the digitization of natural history collections, but it can highlight sampling biases, life history changes, and gaps in taxonomy and systematics. Through the digitization of non-adult specimens of clubtail dragonflies, for example, it is possible to identify the taxa that lack diagnostic keys for all life stages. While likely only a small proportion of an entomological collection includes all life stages for a single taxon, the larvae and exuviae (the skin shed upon emergence from the aquatic larval stage to the adult terrestrial stage) can provide a more comprehensive representation of morphological characters for species’ identification and evolutionary questions. Furthermore, recording the life stage of dragonflies in the digitization process enables analysis of the distribution of a dragonfly taxon throughout its life history, which is both aquatic and terrestrial. By digitizing the Gomphidae specimens in collection at the Frost Entomological Museum at Penn State University, proportions of life stages were compared to other digitized collections. This analysis reveals gaps in both keys and collections, as well as the need for increased diagnostic and natural history data for this family.

description: Der Beitrag beschreibt ein Rollenmodell für das Management einer komplexen Infrastrukturlandschaft aus Sicht geisteswissenschaftlicher Forschungseinrichtungen. Eine Mittelsperson makelt zwischen den Serviceangeboten der Infrastruktureinrichtungen und den Anforderungen der Forschenden. Diese Infrastrukturintermediation komprimiert oder übersetzt nicht nur Informationen, sondern übernimmt Verantwortung für die Konzeption und den Betrieb der Forschungsinfrastruktur sowie die Auswahl von Diensten und Tools, die Organisation des Betriebes und die Moderation der Nutzung. Die Verlagerung dieses Aufgabenbereiches auf ein/e Expert*in eröffnet a) größere Spielräume für die Forschenden, b) Zugänge zu Angeboten für die Forschungseinrichtungen und c) Nutzerkreise für die Infrastrukturanbieter und deren Organisation in Verbünden und Konsortien. Der Beitrag skizziert die Konzepte einer Infrastrukturmediation zweier außeruniversitärer Forschungseinrichtungen, die auch auf andere Strukturen und Wissenschaftseinrichtungen übertragbar sind.

description: The prognosis of fibrolamellar carcinoma (FLC) versus conventional hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains controversial. Thus, this study aimed to compare the prognosis of FLC and HCC. Patients with FLC and HCC in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database between 2000 and 2015 were included. Propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to balance the clinical characteristics between FLC and HCC. Cox regression and Kaplan-Meier analysis were applied to identify the effect of pathology in prognosis before and after match in the whole cohort, as well as in subgroups of fibrosis score, AJCC stage and therapy. A total of 213 patients with FLC and 33365 patients with HCC between 2000 and 2015 were identified. Before matching, the overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) were significantly better in FLC than HCC. After matching, FLC patients had better OS than HCC patients, but the CSS was similar between groups. Further analyses found that in patients at early stage (AJCC I-III) and/or accepted curative therapy, the prognosis was comparable between HCC and FLC. In patients without cirrhosis (F0), the HCC patients had similar prognosis with FLC patients. Prognosis benefit of FLC was observed in subgroups of AJCC stage IV and non-curative therapy, however, the concomitant diseases may affect the results. The prognosis of FLC was significantly better than HCC before matching. However, after matching for clinical characteristics, the CSS was comparable between FLC and HCC.

description: North Atlantic EBSAs, VMEs and MPAs in a changing ocean - a one-day symposium Synopsis
 In the North Atlantic, the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is central to the flow
 of energy and elements through the ocean. However, significant gaps in our understanding of the
 links between large-scale oceanographic processes and living marine resources hinder the
 development of predictive models to account for changes in ocean conditions due to climate
 change and increased human activity.
 The ATLAS project (www.eu-atlas.org) is exploiting the vast in situ time series dataset provided by
 international oceanographic arrays to understand how climate and oceanic variability interact with
 human pressures to control ecosystem functioning, biodiversity, connectivity and goods and
 services. Twelve case studies located across the Atlantic are examining specific scenarios of ‘Blue
 Growth’ development to inform marine spatial planning approaches.
 An integral part of this work is to consider implications of change on sensitive deep-water
 ecosystems that have been identified as significant and/or vulnerable and thus worthy of
 protection. The focus is on waters 200-2000m deep and on the implications of change for
 Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems (VMEs), Ecologically or Biologically Significant Areas (EBSAs) and
 High Seas Marine Protected Areas (MPAs).
 This one-day symposium on 12 May 2018 was aimed at scientists, practitioners, policy makers and
 representatives of civil society with expertise and interest in the future of these area-based
 management tools (ABMTs) or situations that could support ABMTs in the North Atlantic, and took
 place in Montreal immediately before the 4th World Conference on Marine Biodiversity.
 Presentations highlighted emerging results from ATLAS, and the status of ABMTs informed by
 predicted shifts in ecosystem dynamics were reviewed. Discussions examined opportunities and
 processes for adaptive management, and formulated recommendations for future priorities and
 directions. A postscript explains how this discussion fed into subsequent policy fora and informed
 papers published in 2019.
