Aircraft Detection for Remote Sensing Images Based on Deep Convolutional Neural Networks by Liming Zhou, Haoxin Yan, Yingzi Shan, Chang Zheng, Yang Liu, Xianyu Zuo, Baojun Qiao

“…However, the proposed algorithms still have a series of problems; for instance, the algorithms will miss some small-scale aircrafts when applied to the remote sensing image. There are two main reasons for the problem; one reason is that the aircrafts in the remote sensing image are usually small in size, leading to detecting difficulty. …”

OpenNavSense platform: A low-cost, open-source inertial navigation system for the evaluation of estimation algorithms by Pablo Raul Yanyachi, Jorch Mendoza-Chok, Brayan Espinoza-Garcia, Juan Carlos Cutipa Luque, Daniel Yanyachi Aco Cardenas

“…This platform is built using FreeRTOS, an open-source real-time operating system (RTOS) that enables the microcontroller to run parallel individual threads (tasks), providing a practical and effective tool for implementing estimation algorithms that compensate for the use of low-cost microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) sensors instead of high-end sensors in professional INS. The main contribution of this work is the introduction of a FreeRTOS-based platform, which facilitates independent management of computational and processing tasks. …”

Comparative studies on physicochemical properties, volatile flavor substances and microbial community of Mianning ham at different altitudes by Qianhui Zeng, Lili Ji, Wei Wang, Jiamin Zhang, Ting Bai, Ling Gan, Lin Chen

“…BackgroundThis study explores the impact of varying altitudes on the quality characteristics of Mianning ham.MethodsBy utilizing Solid-Phase Microextraction—Gas Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry (SPME-GC-MS) technology and high-throughput sequencing techniques, the physicochemical properties, volatile flavor compounds, and shifts in microbial communities of Mianning ham at different altitudes were investigated.ResultsHam’s water content, aw, pH, malondialdehyde content,and nitrite content at high altitudes were higher, while the salt content of ham at low altitudes was higher. 112 volatile compounds were identified in ham fermented for 0, 1, and 2 years at low altitude and high altitude, and the volatile compounds in ham at high altitude were more abundant than those in ham at low altitude. The main flavor compounds were 1-octene-3-ol, Nonyl aldehyde, Octanal, and 15 other volatile compounds. …”

Experimental Study on Mechanical Properties and Energy Evolution Law of Coal-Rock Composite Structure under Different Interface Connection Modes by Chenglin Tian, Haitao Sun, Linchao Dai, Rifu Li, Bo Wang, Jie Cao, Jun Wang, Qianting Hu

“…The results were as follows: (1) The interface reduces the strength of rock and increases the strength of coal in the coal-rock composite structure. (2) In the loading process, the coal body is destroyed first and the destruction range increases gradually with the increase of stress. The failure mode is mainly a plastic shear failure, and the deformation of coal is much larger than that of rock in the composite structure. (3) The interface contact mode affects the mechanical behavior of coal and rock structure. …”
