CHALLENGES TO COCOA PRODUCTION IN THE FACE OF CLIMATE CHANGE AND THE SPREAD OF PESTS AND DISEASES



The Tail of the Late Jurassic Sauropod Giraffatitan brancai: Digital Reconstruction of Its Epaxial and Hypaxial Musculature, and Implications for Tail Biomechanics

Dinosaur locomotion and biomechanics, especially of their pelvic girdles and hindlimbs, have been analyzed in numerous studies.However, detailed volumetric musculoskeletal models of their tails are rarely developed.Here, we present the first detailed three-dimensional volumetric reconstruction of the caudal epaxial and hypaxial musculature of the L

SD-VIS: A Fast and Accurate Semi-Direct Monocular Visual-Inertial Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM)

In practical applications, how to achieve a perfect balance between high accuracy and computational efficiency can be the main challenge for simultaneous galaxy harmony nc localization and mapping (SLAM).To solve this challenge, we propose SD-VIS, a novel fast and accurate semi-direct visual-inertial SLAM framework, which can estimate camera motion
