Pseudo-Totient Entropy Constants: A One-Parameter Family Extending the Mean Totient Entropy Constant
Pseudo-Totient Entropy Constants: A One-Parameter Family Extending the Mean Totient Entropy Constant For a positive integer s, let g_s = Id_s * μ denote the arithmetic function obtained by Möbius-inverting the s-th power function, so that g_s(p^j) = p^(j−1)s(p^s−1) on prime power...

Investigating social drones for recreational running through co-design
Introduction Human-drone interaction is an emerging field investigating ways to extend the conventionally passive role of drones with autonomous, socially interactive functionalities. Drones offer unique opportunities for applications, such as exercise support, due to their mobil...

Flame Front Stratification During Quasi-Flame Flashback
During the study of premixed NH₃/CH₄ fuel mixtures, flame separation into two reaction zones was observed upon flashback into a Bunsen burner. Stable combustion regimes were obtained, with a gap between the burner rim and the upper luminous region, the size of which depended on t...

Industrial anomaly detection via RGB-event fusion with multimodal large language models
In complex industrial scenarios, traditional Industrial Anomaly Detection methods often perform poorly under extreme conditions such as low light, high-speed motion, and strong light interference. To address this, we propose RGB-Event Industrial Anomaly Detection via Vision-Langu...
