Transformer-based out-of-distribution (OOD) input detection for trustworthy self-parking
Abstract The deployment of automated driving (AD) systems demands trustworthiness, explainability, and accountability. A challenge is detecting out-of-distribution (OOD) inputs from sensor noise, hardware failures, adversarial interference, or deviations from the operational desi...

Mixed reality simulation of guided needle insertion: effects of interaction and visual fidelity
PURPOSE: Mixed reality (MR) simulations are increasingly used in medical training to provide safe, controllable, and repeatable practice environments. While visual fidelity (VF) and interaction fidelity (IF) are known to influence user experience (UX), their respective effects on...

Facet‐Engineered Zn Nanosheet Arrays for High‐Energy‐Density Fiber‐Shaped Zn–Air Batteries
Fiber‐shaped zinc–air batteries (FZABs) hold great promise for wearable energy storage owing to their intrinsic safety, mechanical flexibility, and high theoretical energy density, yet their practical energy density remains fundamentally constrained by the low utilization of Zn a...

Measuring racial attitudes pre-treatment in survey experiments
Abstract Experimental researchers often need to assess the moderating effect of racial attitudes. However, it is unclear whether the racial attitude battery deployed may bias treatment effects. Less subtle batteries could bias treatment effects toward zero if measuring racial att...

A Tert ‐Alkyl Terephthalate Derivative as a Universal Degradable Unit for Condensation Polymers
ABSTRACT Incorporating cleavable triggers into the backbones of parent polymers enables programmed degradation, offering a pathway to chemically recyclable plastics. Although various triggers have been reported to date, simple esters bearing a C─O bond cleavable by photocatalytic...

Chemical Characterization and Bioactive Profile of a Selection of 45 Rapini Populations
The present study evaluated the chemical profiles and bioactivities of 45 rapini (Brassica rapa L.) populations (RA1-RA45) cultivated in Central Greece. Our results suggest that the tested rapini populations differed in their compositional traits, with coefficients of variation (...
