Bitstream-corrupted JPEG images are restorable: two-stage compensation and alignment framework for image restoration by Liu, Wenyang, Wang, Yi, Yap, Kim-Hui, Chau, Lap-Pui

“…The GCA leverages the extracted low-resolution thumbnail from the JPEG header to guide full-resolution pixel-wise image restoration in a coarse-to-fine manner. It is achieved by a coarse-guided pix2pix network and a refine-guided bi-directional Laplacian pyramid fusion network. …”

Amorphous high-entropy phosphide nanosheets with multi-atom catalytic sites for efficient oxygen evolution by Li, Xiumin, Xie, Zhengkun, Roy, Soumyabrata, Gao, Longqing, Liu, Jie, Zhao, Bing, Wei, Ran, Tang, Bijun, Wang, Hongyan, Ajayan, Pulickel, Tang, Keyong

“…Furthermore, Fe and Ni/Co sites prefer to stabilize the HO* and HOO* intermediates respectively, conducive to breaking their scaling relation of Gibbs free energy during OER. Owing to its fine-tuned composition and the synergistic effect of multiple active sites, the FeCoNiCuYP/C electrocatalyst demonstrates superior OER performance in alkaline solutions, requiring a mere 316 mV overpotential to yield 100 mA cm-2 current density with excellent stability. …”

Distributed droop schemes for standalone and interlinked AC microgrids by Inam Ullah

“…So far, the common objective focused by the droop schemes has been proportional power sharing among the DGs based on their respective ratings. This objective is fine if the DGs are of the same type, just like the classical control of parallel synchronous generators. …”

Multi-species rotational grazing of small ruminants regenerates undergrowth vegetation while controlling weeds in the oil palm silvopastoral system by Tohiran, Kamil Azmi, Nobilly, Frisco, Zulkifli, Raja, Yahya, Muhammad Syafiq, Norhisham, Ahmad Razi, Rasyidi, Md Zainal, Azhar, Badrul

“…Hence, we concluded managing undergrowth vegetation in oil palm plantations using multi-species livestock grazing is a practical approach, and it should be fine-tuned for example by choosing livestock species based on the targeted objectives and the grazing sequence that will be practiced to regenerate the oil palm silvopastoral system. …”

Search for Subsolar-Mass Binaries in the First Half of Advanced LIGO’s and Advanced Virgo’s Third Observing Run by Sudhir, Vivishek

“…The upper limit on the fraction of dark matter black holes depends on the minimum mass of the black holes that can be formed: the most constraining result is obtained at $M_\mathrm{min}=1 M_\odot$, where $f_\mathrm{DBH} \equiv \Omega_\mathrm{PBH} / \Omega_\mathrm{DM} \lesssim 0.003\%$. …”
