Biologically inspired visual intelligence for unmanned ground vehicles by Peyman Moghadam

“…Based on empirical evidences, it is known that when human drivers become familiar with the road situations, they prefer to look at the far field where the road edges converge (called the vanishing point) to anticipate the upcoming road trajectory and the car steering with maximal lead time. Based on these findings, vanishing point is considered as a salient and consistent feature during most of the open driving behavior tasks regardless of type of the environments. …”

Temperature drift characteristics analysis of GMM-FBG current sensor based on finite-element multi-physics simulations by Li, Ying, Sun, Weifeng, Zhang, Weichao

“…Even though temperature elevation suppresses GMM magnetization and thereby reduces the slopes of stress–strain curves, the steering magnetization of magnetic domains in the GMM rod tends to saturation without appreciable thermal inhibition in the high-stress region of large current excitation, while the magnetostrictive strain is still abated by the reduction in magnetic flux density caused by the thermal expansion of GMM rods. …”

High-voltage IR-UWB pulse generator MMIC design and beamforming for indoor-ranging and radar applications by Hussain Ansari Md Arif

“…The array with a spacing of 10.2 cm is intentionally configured to produce orthogonal beams, which eventually provides better geometric dilution of precision (GDOP). The beam steering-angle analysis and an intensity table for the Gaussian-modulated multi-cycle IR-UWB beamforming array are provided. …”

Modeling perception errors in autonomous vehicles and their impact on behavior by Piazzoni, Andrea

“…By analyzing the data (signals), AVs respond by planning the desired trajectory and acting on the steering wheel and the throttle/brake pedals. It is trivial to observe that any error present in the perception of the surroundings will affect the decision taken, eventually leading to undesirable behavior. …”

Investigating viral glycosylation pathways for drug and vaccine development by Brun, J

“…FDA-approved compounds were prioritised and triaged within the screen for clinical committees such as the UK steering group for therapeutics for COVID-19. Compounds of a global anti-COVID-19 effort called the “Moonshot project” targeting the main protease of SARS-CoV-2 were also screened and promising compounds were progressed further to produce a specific direct-acting SARS-CoV-2 antiviral compound. …”

The growing pains of e-commerce business in Africa by Gopaldas, Ronak

“…The burgeoning industry has seen the birth of homegrown e-commerce platforms such as Jumia (Nigeria), Takealot (South Africa) and Kilimall (Kenya), and the market’s potential has not gone unnoticed by bigger international players like Amazon, Alibaba, Shein and even Facebook, all of whom are positioning themselves for a piece of the e-commerce pie. Africa, however, is a truly unique operating environment and presents its own challenges, from logistical constraints, underdeveloped infrastructure and limited payment gateways to security, access to capital and a customer trust deficit. …”

Indo-European youth priesthoods and the Männerbund theory: a study of the Vedic Vrātyas and their ancient Indo-European analogues by Elby, T

“…These have been selected because they all possess languages descended from Proto-Indo-European (PIE), a reconstructed ancestor language. The aim is to demonstrate that comparative religion using data from the selected societies can explain aspects of the Vedic Vrātyas, and, in so doing, make plausible the existence of a religious institution that existed before speakers of PIE migrated into the areas in which the selected societies developed. …”
