Evolutionary origin of the chordate nervous system revealed by amphioxus developmental trajectories by Dai, Y, Zhong, Y, Liu, H, Pan, R, Yuan, L, Du, J, Li, M, Wang, X, Shi, C, Liu, G, Zhu, P, Shimeld, S, Zhou, X, Li, G

“…Our results show three developmental origins for the vertebrate nervous system: an anterior FoxQ2-dependent mechanism that is deeply conserved in invertebrates, a less-conserved route leading to more posterior neurons in the vertebrate spinal cord and a mechanism for specifying neuromesoderm progenitors that is restricted to chordates. …”

Development of a counter-UAV system by Tang, Wen Yue

“…Upon testing, the firing pin mechanism was found to be unable to reliably puncture the CO2 canister, even after improvements. …”

Lessons from a retrospective look at India’s upstream sector by Elango, P

Clustering of designers based on building information modeling event logs by Pan, Yue, Zhang, Limao, Skibniewski, Miroslaw J.

“…The node2vec learns and projects the network feature representation into a 128-dimensional vector, which is learned by GMM to discover three possible clusters owning 15, 26, and 27 closely linked designers. Analysis of each cluster is performed from node importance measurement and link prediction to identify information spreading and designers’ roles within clusters. …”

Leptospirosis modelling using hydrometeorological indices and random forest machine learning by Jayaramu, Veianthan, Zulkafli, Zed, De Stercke, Simon, Buytaert, Wouter, Rahmat, Fariq, Abdul Rahman, Ribhan Zafira, Ishak, Asnor Juraiza, Tahir, Wardah, Ab Rahman, Jamalludin, Mohd Fuzi, Nik Mohd Hafiz

“…Leptospirosis is a zoonosis that has been linked to hydrometeorological variability. Hydrometeorological averages and extremes have been used before as drivers in the statistical prediction of disease. …”

Characterizing Speech Motor Pattern in Minimally Verbal Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder via Surface Electromyography by Protyasha, Nishat Fahmida

“…Minimally verbal adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder (mvASD) experience significant speech production challenges linked to impaired motor skills. Despite the prevalence of these speech difficulties, the underlying motor mechanisms remain poorly understood. …”

Ecosystem productivity has a stronger influence than soil age on surface soil carbon storage across global biomes by Plaza, César, García-Palacios, Pablo, Berhe, Asmeret Asefaw, Barquero, Jesús, Bastida, Felipe, Png, Kenny Guochen, Rey, Ana, Bardgett, Richard D., Delgado-Baquerizo, Manuel

“…Yet, variations in the proportions of free light (unprotected) and mineral-associated (protected) carbon as soil develops in contrasting ecosystems are poorly constrained. Here, we studied 16 long-term chronosequences from six continents and found that the ecosystem type is more important than soil age (centuries to millennia) in explaining the proportion of unprotected and mineral-associated carbon fractions in surface soils across global biomes. …”

Notes on Thermodynamics : Hot Oolong Cools / by Kang, Hway Chuan, author 655469, World Scientific (Online service) 655444

“…The book draws upon the idea of microstates where that clarifies the macroscopic ideas: entropy of mixing of gases is linked to Boltzmann and Gibbs' entropy formulations, thus motivating the formulation of the chemical potential of non-ideal systems in terms of their activities. …”

How Stories Change Us : A Developmental Science of Stories from Fiction and Real Life / by Reese, Elaine, author 655966

“…Likewise, imagined stories and imagined friendships can promote learning, creativity, and well-being, but at the extremes, imaginative processes can be linked to psychopathology. The gender differences observed in women's and men's fiction reading may be due in part to individual differences in mental imagery from practices dating back to early childhood. …”

Placing objects in context via inpainting for out-of-distribution segmentation by De Jorge, P, Volpi, R, Dokania, PK, Torr, PHS, Rogez, G

“…However, acquiring and labelling semantic segmentation data is expensive and unanticipated conditions are long-tail and potentially hazardous. Indeed, existing anomaly segmentation datasets capture a limited number of anomalies, lack realism or have strong domain shifts. …”

Habitat occupancy of terrestrial mammals along Singapore’s purpose-built wildlife corridor by Sivaraman Sivanantham

“…Construction of Bukit Timah Expressway in Singapore (1986) placed a physical barrier between Bukit Timah Nature Reserve and Central Catchment Nature Reserve resulting in the fragmentation of these habitats that were connected. Eco-Link@BKE, a purpose-built wildlife corridor was constructed in 2013 to restore the connectivity, facilitating the safe passage of terrestrial animals across. …”
