The intelligence of artifice: Oscar Wilde and AI by Tyson, C, Mendelssohn, M

“…Oscar Wilde has been a central figure in this conversation. At the turn of the century, Wilde recombined strands inherited from French and American sources and refashioned them into a new artistic stance that anticipated the postmodern preoccupation with fakery. …”

CountGD: multi-modal open-world counting by Amini-Naieni, N, Han, T, Zisserman, A

“…To improve the generality, we repurpose an openvocabulary detection foundation model (GroundingDINO) for the counting task, and also extend its capabilities by introducing modules to enable specifying the target object to count by visual exemplars. In turn, these new capabilities – being able to specify the target object by multi-modalites (text and exemplars) – lead to an improvement in counting accuracy. …”

Instabilities in tidal turbine wakes by Smyth, ASM, Nishino, T, Young, AM

“…Unsteady inflow causes the turbine blades to shed vorticity of time-varying strength into the wake, which in turn leads to a spatial variation in wake vortex strength, such that the vorticity of adjacent returning wake segments can differ. …”

Insulinotropic activity of Tinospora crispa extract: effect on β-cell Ca2+ handling by Noor, Hamdan, Ashcroft, Stephen J. H.

“…The aqueous extract sensitizes the β-cell to extracellular Ca2+ and promotes intracellular Ca2+ accumulation which in turn causes increased insulin release. The increase in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration is due to stimulation of Ca2+ uptake from the extracellular medium and inhibition of Ca2+ efflux from the cytosol. …”
