Agricultural areas can benefit from the reduction of rodents by raptors, yet many croplands and pastures do not provide adequate perching structures needed by raptors to hunt effectively.Many artificial raptor perches have been constructed as a solution to this deficiency, however, monitoring the benefits of these perches has proved challenging.We
The removal of impulse noise is a crucial pre-processing step in image processing systems.In recent years, numerous noise-removal methods have been proposed to improve denoizing performance and reconstruct noise-free images.However, removing high-density acupatch impulse noise remains a major challenge.In this paper, to address the image denoizing
Given the popularity of wrist-worn devices, particularly smartwatches, the identification of manual movement patterns has become of utmost interest within the research field of Human Activity Recognition (HAR) systems.In this context, by leveraging the numerous sensors natively embedded in smartwatches, the HAR functionalities that can be implement
Adaptive reuse is a rapidly expanding frontier study area across the world.Adaptive reuse can have a significant influence in relation to contemporary trends in (peri-)urban sustainability, especially considering the past decades of the human-caused depletion of natural resources and environmental pollution.Adaptive reuse developments, which manage
Spiroid gears are used to transfer heavy loads with a significant reduction in input speed.Like most toothed gears, they are lubricated with oil whose physical properties change with temperature fluctuations, affecting the durability and reliability of the gear.Bearing this in mind, gear designers plan systems for measuring oil temperature during g
