Especially in case of mangroves, where multiple interests apply, it requires a careful integration of several ecological, economic and institutional factors. The primary objective of this paper is to understand the basis of incentive design and make a comprehensive inquiry into the existing incentive mechanism of participatory mangrove management in Indian Sundarbans. The qualitative and in-depth assessment was derived against a conceptual framework that contains three main determinants: (1) resources availability, (2) control mechanism, and (3) perception of end-users. The study deploys the results of various participatory exercises such as structured interviews with forest officials, focus group discussions with 10 Joint Forest Management Committees and semi-structured interviews with 119 mangrove users. In general, we observed an over-cautious, hierarchical and safety-margin-based incentive design with distinct bifurcation of communities over the adequacy and effectiveness of derived benefits. Although, the incentives are diverse and align well with the overall conservation of mangroves, they are considered to be insufficient by nearly half of the mangrove users. The main issues that were observed to hinder effective community participation can be summarized as (1) serious restrictions on access to economically exploitable mangrove products, (2) passive involvement of vulnerable occupational groups, and (3) lack of trust and conflicting interests between the officials and the communities. Although the existing preventive management of mangroves can be justified considering the magnanimity of the Indian Sundarbans, it can severely impair community participation and emerge as a clear threat to future sustainability. To secure greater participation of the communities, we propose small scale, innovative developmental incentives to supplement traditional forest-resource-based incentives.展开更多

Through a mixed-methods approach incorporating surveys of 523 employees across 78 SMEs, qualitative interviews, and case studies, the research examines how psychological factors influence cybersecurity behaviors and policy effectiveness. Key findings reveal significant correlations between psychological factors and security outcomes, including the relationship between self-efficacy and policy compliance (r = 0.42, p β = 0.37, p < 0.001). The study identifies critical challenges in risk perception, policy complexity, and organizational culture affecting SME cybersecurity implementation. Results demonstrate that successful cybersecurity initiatives require the integration of psychological principles with technical solutions. The research provides a framework for developing human-centric security policies that address both behavioral and technical aspects of cybersecurity in resource-constrained environments.展开更多

文摘Incentive design is among the decisive factors behind active community participation and long-term sustainability of participatory forest management. Especially in case of mangroves, where multiple interests apply, it requires a careful integration of several ecological, economic and institutional factors. The primary objective of this paper is to understand the basis of incentive design and make a comprehensive inquiry into the existing incentive mechanism of participatory mangrove management in Indian Sundarbans. The qualitative and in-depth assessment was derived against a conceptual framework that contains three main determinants: (1) resources availability, (2) control mechanism, and (3) perception of end-users. The study deploys the results of various participatory exercises such as structured interviews with forest officials, focus group discussions with 10 Joint Forest Management Committees and semi-structured interviews with 119 mangrove users. In general, we observed an over-cautious, hierarchical and safety-margin-based incentive design with distinct bifurcation of communities over the adequacy and effectiveness of derived benefits. Although, the incentives are diverse and align well with the overall conservation of mangroves, they are considered to be insufficient by nearly half of the mangrove users. The main issues that were observed to hinder effective community participation can be summarized as (1) serious restrictions on access to economically exploitable mangrove products, (2) passive involvement of vulnerable occupational groups, and (3) lack of trust and conflicting interests between the officials and the communities.

文摘Developing effective,versatile,and high-precision sensing interfaces remains a crucial challenge in human-machine-environment interaction applications.Despite progress in interaction-oriented sensing skins,limitations remain in unit-level reconfiguration,multiaxial force and motion sensing,and robust operation across dynamically changing or irregular surfaces.Herein,we develop a reconfigurable omnidirectional triboelectric whisker sensor array(RO-TWSA)comprising multiple sensing units that integrate a triboelectric whisker structure(TWS)with an untethered hydro-sealing vacuum sucker(UHSVS),enabling reversibly portable deployment and omnidirectional perception across diverse surfaces.Using a simple dual-triangular electrode layout paired with MXene/silicone nanocomposite dielectric layer,the sensor unit achieves precise omnidirectional force and motion sensing with a detection threshold as low as 0.024 N and an angular resolution of 5°,while the UHSVS provides reliable and reversible multi-surface anchoring for the sensor units by involving a newly designed hydrogel combining high mechanical robustness and superior water absorption.Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of RO-TWSA across various interactive scenarios,including teleoperation,tactile diagnostics,and robotic autonomous exploration.Overall,RO-TWSA presents a versatile and high-resolution tactile interface,offering new avenues for intelligent perception and interaction in complex real-world environments.

文摘Robotic electronic skin(e-skin)is inspired by human skin and endows robots with tactile perception,temperature detection,and environmental interaction capabilities.However,its development is hampered by prolonged design cycles,limited signal enhancement,and weak cognitive abilities.Given that the convergence of artificial intelligence(AI)with e-skin is fundamentally transforming this landscape,the present review highlights the pivotal contributions of AI across the entire development spectrum of robotic e-skin,including design optimization,signal processing,and cognitive enhancement.AI-driven design paradigms dramatically shorten development time and enable the discovery of optimal sensor materials and structures.In signal processing,AI algorithms notably improve the ability to decouple complex sensory data,enabling robust,multimodal,super-resolution sensing.AI endows e-skin with advanced cognitive capabilities,allowing it to interpret intricate tactile information and intelligently respond to external environments.By underscoring the potential of AI throughout the entire development pipeline,this review aims to drive the creation of e-skin with minimal hardware and maximal cognition and thus achieve revolutionary breakthroughs in cutting-edge fields such as human-robot interactions,precise robot control,and soft robotics for environmental exploration.
文摘BACKGROUND Preoperative anxiety is a significant concern for patients,as it affects surgical outcomes,satisfaction,and pain perception.Although both anxiety and pain are common in surgical settings,their relationship with personality traits has not been previously investigated in the Lebanese population.AIM To examine the prevalence of preoperative anxiety,pain perception,and personality traits among Lebanese surgical patients,and to assess the associations between these factors.METHODS A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted between April 2024 and January 2025 across Lebanese hospitals.A total of 392 adult patients were recruited through convenience sampling.Data were collected using a questionnaire that included sociodemographic,clinical,and surgical variables,the Amsterdam Preoperative Anxiety and Information Scale for anxiety,the Visual Analog Scale and Numerical Pain Rating Scale for preoperative pain,and the Ten-Item Personality Inventory for personality traits.Ethical approval was obtained from the Institutional Review Boards of Makassed General Hospital and Hammoud University Medical Center.RESULTS Overall,25%of participants experienced preoperative anxiety,and 34.5%reported moderate pain.Personality assessment showed that the majority of participants had moderate extraversion(84.1%),moderate emotional stability(65.1%),high conscientiousness(61%),high agreeableness(54.1%),and moderate openness(49.2%).High conscientiousness was significantly associated with higher pain perception(P<0.05),while high emotional stability was associated with lower levels of anxiety(P<0.05).No significant association was found between preoperative anxiety and pain(P>0.05).CONCLUSION This study challenges the assumption that preoperative anxiety and pain are directly correlated and highlights the role of personality traits in shaping patient experience.These findings support the potential value of integrating psychological profiling into preoperative care and lay the groundwork for developing personalized interventions to improve patient-centered surgical outcomes.
文摘As a cornerstone for applications such as autonomous driving,3D urban perception is a burgeoning field of study.Enhancing the performance and robustness of these perception systems is crucial for ensuring the safety of next-generation autonomous vehicles.In this work,we introduce a novel neural scene representation called Street Detection Gaussians(SDGs),which redefines urban 3D perception through an integrated architecture unifying reconstruction and detection.At its core lies the dynamic Gaussian representation,where time-conditioned parameterization enables simultaneous modeling of static environments and dynamic objects through physically constrained Gaussian evolution.The framework’s radar-enhanced perception module learns cross-modal correlations between sparse radardata anddense visual features,resulting ina22%reduction inocclusionerrors compared tovisiononly systems.A breakthrough differentiable rendering pipeline back-propagates semantic detection losses throughout the entire 3D reconstruction process,enabling the optimization of both geometric and semantic fidelity.Evaluated on the Waymo Open Dataset and the KITTI Dataset,the system achieves real-time performance(135 Frames Per Second(FPS)),photorealistic quality(Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio(PSNR)34.9 dB),and state-of-the-art detection accuracy(78.1%Mean Average Precision(mAP)),demonstrating a 3.8×end-to-end improvement over existing hybrid approaches while enabling seamless integration with autonomous driving stacks.

文摘The capability of whole-body proprioception,e.g.,pose estimation,is important for the control and interaction of continuum robots.However,existing pose estimation methods are often simplified through geometric assumptions,primarily due to constraints such as computational and sensor deployment costs.We propose an explicit posture estimation method through a neural network,and implement it using an embedded camera for vision-based proprioception.We design a continuous location encoding neural network(LENN)by encoding continuous locational information.The LENN can capture deformation from changes in internal texture observed by an integrated camera,and output pose information—both position and orientation—for any point along the robot backbone,rather than only discrete points.Compared with interpolation-based estimation using a reduced model,our method reduces single-point estimation error by 33.6%.Furthermore,a systematic evaluation of hardware configurations demonstrates that our prototype achieves sub-millimetre accuracy in shape estimation(0.383 mm)while maintaining real-time inference speeds below 12 ms per frame.By combining a learning-based approach with a simple mechanical design,our method leverages internal visual information to estimate the whole-body pose,providing an effective solution for accurate shape estimation in continuum robots.

文摘Objectives:Psychological resilience is a critical resource for vocational high school students navigating social biases and fostering mental well-being.This six-month longitudinal study investigated the developmental trajectories of discrimination perception,vocational identity,and psychological resilience in this population.It further examined the longitudinal mediating role of vocational identity in the relationship between discrimination perception and psychological resilience.Methods:A total of 526 students from five vocational high schools in Guangdong,China,were assessed via convenience sampling at two time points:baseline(T1,September 2023)and six-month follow-up(T2,March 2024).Measures of discrimination perception,psychological resilience,and vocational identity were administered.Data were analyzed using a cross-lagged panel model to test for bidirectional relationships.Results:Over the six-month period,students showed significant decreases in discrimination perception and vocational identity,but a significant increase in psychological resilience.The cross-lagged model revealed significant bidirectional relationships:discrimination perception and psychological resilience negatively predicted each other over time(β=−0.124,p<0.01;β=−0.200,p<0.001),while psychological resilience and vocational identity positively predicted each other(β=0.084,p<0.05;β=0.076,p<0.05).The mediation analysis revealed a dual-pathway mechanism.T1 discrimination perception exerted both a significant direct negative effect on T2 psychological resilience(β=−0.332,p<0.001)and a significant indirect positive effect via T1 vocational identity(indirect effect=0.020,95%CI[0.001,0.046]).This confirms a partial mediating role,indicating that vocational identity functions as a compensatory mechanism,transforming the experience of discrimination perception into a potential source of psychological resilience.Conclusions:For vocational high school students,perception of discrimination directly undermines psychological resilience,but also indirectly fosters it through the positive development of vocational identity.These findings highlight vocational identity as a pivotal mechanism in the complex relationship between social adversity and mental resilience.

文摘Legged robots have considerable potential for traversing unstructured situations;nonetheless,their inflexible frameworks often constrain adaptability and obstacle negotiation.The study article presents a revolutionary Soft Tri-Legged Robot(STLR)that improves movement and obstacle-avoidance skills by using a bio-inspired pneumatic artificial muscle(Bubble Artificial Muscles)and a bio-inspired tactile sensor(TacTip).The STLR is activated by BAMs,which are flexible,pneu-matic-driven actuators that provide fine control over forward,backward,and steering movements.Obstacle identification and avoidance are facilitated by the TacTip sensor,which delivers tactile input for traversing unstructured terrains.We delineate the mechanical features of the BAMs,assess the functionality of the robot's legs,and elaborate on the incorpora-tion of the tactile sensing system.Experimental results demonstrate that the STLR can effectively achieve multi-directional flexible movement and obstacle avoidance through a cross-modal perception-actuation mechanism.This study highlights the promise of soft robotics for search and rescue,medical aid,and autonomous exploration,while delineating difficulties and opportunities for future improvements in functionality and efficiency.

文摘Perception of air pollution is subjective and context-dependent.Previous studies exploring the association between measured air pollution and perceived air quality mainly focused on air pollution levels measured in the residence-based(RB)or regional context,overlooking the mobility-based(MB)context in which people are exposed to air pollution.This study measures air pollution levels in MB,RB,and regional contexts and examines their relationships with perceived air quality across different neighborhoods and gender sub-groups of Hong Kong,China to investigate how people perceive air quality.The results indicate that particulate matter 2.5(PM_(2.5))measured in RB and the regional context significantly contributes to people’s perceived air quality compared to MB PM_(2.5).Individuals in Central and Western district of Hong Kong rely on RB,regional and MB PM_(2.5) to assess air pollution.In Sham Shui Po,RB PM_(2.5) exhibits the highest influence on people’s perceived air quality,followed by regional PM_(2.5).Women’s perceived air quality is strongly related to their RB PM_(2.5) exposure,while men’s perceived air quality is associated with both RB PM_(2.5) and regional PM_(2.5) levels.We conclude that neighborhood effects and mobility levels are the two most important factors influencing the association between meas-ured air pollution and perceived air quality.We reveal that the neighborhood effect averaging problem(NEAP)influences the associ-ation between perceived air quality and measured air pollution levels in a way that differs from health outcome-related studies.Effect-ive measures are needed to improve the public’s awareness of air pollution,and scientific control should be implemented to reduce pub-lic exposure.

文摘Iced transmission line galloping poses a significant threat to the safety and reliability of power systems,leading directly to line tripping,disconnections,and power outages.Existing early warning methods of iced transmission line galloping suffer from issues such as reliance on a single data source,neglect of irregular time series,and lack of attention-based closed-loop feedback,resulting in high rates of missed and false alarms.To address these challenges,we propose an Internet of Things(IoT)empowered early warning method of transmission line galloping that integrates time series data from optical fiber sensing and weather forecast.Initially,the method applies a primary adaptive weighted fusion to the IoT empowered optical fiber real-time sensing data and weather forecast data,followed by a secondary fusion based on a Back Propagation(BP)neural network,and uses the K-medoids algorithm for clustering the fused data.Furthermore,an adaptive irregular time series perception adjustment module is introduced into the traditional Gated Recurrent Unit(GRU)network,and closed-loop feedback based on attentionmechanism is employed to update network parameters through gradient feedback of the loss function,enabling closed-loop training and time series data prediction of the GRU network model.Subsequently,considering various types of prediction data and the duration of icing,an iced transmission line galloping risk coefficient is established,and warnings are categorized based on this coefficient.Finally,using an IoT-driven realistic dataset of iced transmission line galloping,the effectiveness of the proposed method is validated through multi-dimensional simulation scenarios.
文摘This article examines the complex relationship between disease perception,negative emotions,and their impact on postoperative recovery in patients with perianal diseases.These conditions not only cause physical discomfort,but also carry a significant emotional burden,often exacerbated by social stigma.Psycho-logical factors,including stress,anxiety,and depression,activate neuroendocrine pathways,such as the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis,disrupting the gut microbiota and leading to dysbiosis.This disruption can delay wound healing,prolong hospital stay,and intensify pain.Drawing on the findings of Hou et al,our article highlights the critical role of illness perception and negative emotions in shaping recovery outcomes.It advocates for a holistic approach that integrates psychological support and gut microbiota modulation,to enhance healing and improve overall patient outcomes.

文摘This study investigates the critical intersection of cyberpsychology and cybersecurity policy development in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Through a mixed-methods approach incorporating surveys of 523 employees across 78 SMEs, qualitative interviews, and case studies, the research examines how psychological factors influence cybersecurity behaviors and policy effectiveness. Key findings reveal significant correlations between psychological factors and security outcomes, including the relationship between self-efficacy and policy compliance (r = 0.42, p β = 0.37, p < 0.001). The study identifies critical challenges in risk perception, policy complexity, and organizational culture affecting SME cybersecurity implementation. Results demonstrate that successful cybersecurity initiatives require the integration of psychological principles with technical solutions. The research provides a framework for developing human-centric security policies that address both behavioral and technical aspects of cybersecurity in resource-constrained environments.

文摘The evacuation of people under threat is an effective disaster prevention and mitigation measure in response to flash floods and geological hazards,and it is also an essential element of pre-disaster planning.However,the effect of the interactions between perception factors on residents'willingness to evacuate is an urgent problem to be solved.Therefore,this paper introduces risk,stakeholder,and protective action perceptions from the protective action decision model as the main explanatory variables.These three core perceptions are subdivided into affective risk perception,cognitive risk perception,government perception,other-stakeholder perception,resourcerelated attributes,and hazard-related attributes.A questionnaire survey was conducted from June to July 2023 among residents of mountainous communities in nine villages in three towns in Sichuan Province,China.359 cross-sectional data were analyzed using structural equation modeling to explore the effects of six perception factors on evacuation intentions.The results of the study showed that:(1)affective risk perception,government perception,other-stakeholder perception,and hazard-related attributes all directly and positively influence residents'intentions to evacuate;(2)cognitive risk perception is mediated by stakeholder and protective action perceptions,which indirectly and positively affect residents'intentions to evacuate.Based on the hypothesized paths,strategies to improve residents'willingness to evacuate are discussed from the perspective of three core perceptions:strengthening disaster risk education,improving residents'cohesion,and building government credibility.The results of this study can provide theoretical support and practical suggestions for emergency management departments to formulate emergency evacuation strategies,which can aid decision-makers in better understanding residents'intentions to evacuate,optimizing evacuation information dissemination pathways,and strengthening disaster risk management capabilities.

文摘In order to study the characteristics of pure fly ash-based geopolymer concrete(PFGC)conveniently,we used a machine learning method that can quantify the perception of characteristics to predict its compressive strength.In this study,505 groups of data were collected,and a new database of compressive strength of PFGC was constructed.In order to establish an accurate prediction model of compressive strength,five different types of machine learning networks were used for comparative analysis.The five machine learning models all showed good compressive strength prediction performance on PFGC.Among them,R2,MSE,RMSE and MAE of decision tree model(DT)are 0.99,1.58,1.25,and 0.25,respectively.While R2,MSE,RMSE and MAE of random forest model(RF)are 0.97,5.17,2.27 and 1.38,respectively.The two models have high prediction accuracy and outstanding generalization ability.In order to enhance the interpretability of model decision-making,we used importance ranking to obtain the perception of machine learning model to 13 variables.These 13 variables include chemical composition of fly ash(SiO_(2)/Al_(2)O_(3),Si/Al),the ratio of alkaline liquid to the binder,curing temperature,curing durations inside oven,fly ash dosage,fine aggregate dosage,coarse aggregate dosage,extra water dosage and sodium hydroxide dosage.Curing temperature,specimen ages and curing durations inside oven have the greatest influence on the prediction results,indicating that curing conditions have more prominent influence on the compressive strength of PFGC than ordinary Portland cement concrete.The importance of curing conditions of PFGC even exceeds that of the concrete mix proportion,due to the low reactivity of pure fly ash.
