Circles of Confidence for Multi‐Label Geometry Completion
Abstract Inside–outside classification is widely used for geometry processing tasks such as surface reconstruction, geometry completion, and calculating signed distance fields. We introduce a new integral formulation of this problem, which assigns confidence scores that points ar...

A Review of Sandbar Dynamics and River Avulsion Mechanisms
River avulsion, the sudden relocation of a river channel to a new course from the parent channel, is a geomorphic process with direct implications for floodplain evolution, ecosystem dynamics, and infrastructure vulnerability. This review article discusses how sandbar migration a...

Imagine to Ensure Safety in Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning
This work investigates the safe exploration problem in reinforcement learning, where an agent must maximize cumulative performance while simultaneously satisfying safety constraints. This challenge becomes particularly difficult in long-horizon tasks because safe reinforcement le...

Evaluation of Variational Quantum Classifiers (VQC) for Cyberattack Detection in the NISQ Era
We investigate the structural limits of Variational Quantum Classifiers (VQC) for network anomaly detection in the Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) era. Using the official 20% research subset of NSL-KDD, we train a 4-qubit classifier that embeds 16 principal components by...

Eco-evolutionary feedback reshapes competitive dynamics in an orchard fly system
The feedback between competition and evolution is central to hypotheses about the origin and maintenance of species diversity. Yet, whether competition-induced evolution is sufficiently rapid, consistent, and strong to maintain diversity on ecological timescales remains unresolve...
