A groundbreaking approach to turning waste into wealth is set to take center stage in an upcoming international webinar.
Recently, a research team led by Prof. XU Yigang and Prof. LIN Mang from the Guangzhou Institute of Geochemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences identified seven olivine-bearing clasts from two grams of lunar regolith returned by the Chang'e-6 mission. Their findings were published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) on Oct. 20.
A research team has developed CitrusGAN, a generative adversarial network (GAN)-based deep learning framework that reconstructs precise 3D citrus CT models from just a few low-cost X-ray images.
In International Journal of Extreme Manufacturing, researchers have developed a dual post-processing method to make 3D-printed metals much stronger and tougher, addressing one of the field’s most persistent challenges.
By combining deep cryogenic treatment and laser shock peening, researchers find a new way to transform the microscopic structure of 3D-printed metals, relieving internal stresses and enhancing their mechanical resilience.A research team developed a 3D deep learning–based panoptic segmentation model that combines semantic and instance segmentation to map plant tissue microstructures from X-ray micro-computed tomography (CT) images.
A research team has developed a multimodal machine vision model that can accurately predict the flowering, or anthesis, time of individual wheat plants—up to two weeks in advance.
A research team has developed a deep learning-based framework that allows agricultural robots to identify new weed species using only a few training images.
