The Collective Dwelling of Cooperative Promotion in Caselas by Vanda Pereira de Matos, Carlos Alberto Assunção Alho

“…To analyze this issue, a multiple case study was adopted, comparing a collective dwelling of cooperative promotion at controlled costs in Caselas (1980s–1990s) with Expo Urbe (2000–2007) in Parque das Nações, a symbol of the new sustainable cooperative housing, which targets a population with a higher standard of living and thus is excluded from the PRR plan. …”

Connected Collision Avoidance System via Stochastic Localization on Community Roads by Takuma Ito

“…Although connected safety system is promising to prevent traffic accidents in such situations, placing roadside sensors at every intersection costs too much. Motivated by above backgrounds, this study proposes a connected collision avoidance system via a stochastic localization method that combines observation information from roadside sensors and onboard/portable devices of traffic participants for realizing the safety systems as well as reducing the necessary number of roadside sensors. …”

Fruit Detection Methods Based on Deep Learning in Agricultural Planting: A Systematic Literature Review by Xinyu Gong, Qiufeng Wu

“…Based on a comprehensive analysis of existing research, we classify deep learning-based fruit detection models into four application scenarios: few-shot detection (addressing limited data availability and high annotation costs), complex scene detection (resolving issues arising from object occlusion, overlapping, and variable illumination), small-target detection (improving performance on low-resolution and densely clustered objects), and real-time detection (designing lightweight algorithms for faster inference). …”
