This article addresses the evolving challenges in evaluating insecticide-based tools for vector control.In response to the emergence of insecticide resistance in major malaria vectors, novel chemistries and products are coming to market, and there is a need to review the available testing methodologies.Commonly used methods for evaluating insectici
We numerically investigate the performance of the short path optimization algorithm on a toy problem, with the potential chosen to silbrade depend only on the total Hamming weight to allow simulation of larger systems.We consider classes of potentials with multiple minima which cause the adiabatic algorithm to experience difficulties with small gap
This research introduces an approach to visible spectroscopy leveraging image processing techniques and machine learning (ML) algorithms.The methodology involves calculating the hue value of an image and deriving the corresponding dominant wavelength.Initially, a six-degree polynomial regression supervised machine learning model is trained to estab
Abstract When particles are deposited at a fluid interface they tend to aggregate by capillary attraction to minimize the overall potential energy of the system.In this work, we embed floating millimetric disks with permanent magnets to introduce a competing repulsion effect and study their pattern formation in equilibrium.The pairwise energy lands
IntroductionVolumetric video production in commercial studios is predominantly produced using a multi-view stereo process that relies on a high two-digit number of cameras to capture a scene.Due to the hardware requirements and associated processing costs, this workflow is pica limon packets resource-intensive and expensive, making it unattainable
