Abstract:
Aiming at the nonlinear radiometric differences between multi-source sensor images and coherent spot noise and other factors that lead to alignment difficulties, the registration method of gradient weakly sensitive multi-source sensor images is proposed, which does not need to extract the image gradient in the whole process and has rotational invariance. In the feature point detection stage, the maximum moment map is obtained by using the phase consistency transform to replace the gradient edge map for chunked Harris feature point detection, thus increasing the number of repeated feature point

Abstract:
Weakly supervised object detection (WSOD) has received increasing attention in object detection field, because it only requires image-level annotations to indicate the presence or absence of target objects, which greatly reduces the labeling costs. Existing methods usually focus on the current individual image to learn object instance representations, while ignoring instance correlations between different images. To address this problem, we propose an instance-level contrastive learning (ICL) framework to mine reliable instance representations from all learned images, and use the contrastive l

Abstract:
Weakly supervised instance segmentation (WSIS) only employs image-level supervision to identify instance class labels and create segmentation masks, drawing increasing attention. Currently, existing WSIS methods primarily focus on activating the most discriminative regions and then inferring the entire instance by analyzing inter-pixel relationships within those regions. However, these identification regions are typically concentrated in limited but critical regions or are mistakenly activated in the background region, making it challenging to address scale variations among instances.

Against the background of the ongoing atmospheric warming, the glacial lakes that are nourished and expanded in High Mountain Asia pose growing risks of glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) hazards and increasing threats to the downstream areas.

Land cover classification is one of the most fundamental tasks in the field of remote sensing.

Abstract The present research effort focuses on determining the effect of steam and liquid water addition on flame structure in preheated, premixed, piloted methane-air jet flames. The turbulent Reynolds Number (ReT) varied between 760 and 4,200, and two equivalence ratios (0.9 and 1.1) were considered. Planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) imaging of OH radicals was performed via excitation of transitions in its A-X (0,0) band (near 311 nm). Flame surface density (FSD) and average progress variable maps (c−) were derived from those images, which facilitated analysis of the turbulent flame-

Abstract:
Abstract We investigated pore-scale oil displacement and rock wettability in tertiary low salinity waterflooding (LSW) in a heterogeneous carbonate sample using high-resolution three-dimensional imaging. This enabled the underlying mechanisms of the low salinity effect (LSE) to be observed and quantified in terms of changes in wettability and pore-scale fluid configuration, while also measuring the overall effect on recovery. The results were compared to the behavior under high salinity waterflooding (HSW). To achieve the wetting state found in oil reservoirs, an Estaillades limestone core sam

Abstract:
Abstract The Late Jurassic Gotnia evaporites of Sabriyah (SA) and Raudhatain (RA) fields, North Kuwait, provide an example of Layered Evaporite Sequences (LESs) in which well-preserved internal geometries resulting from a complex polyphased tectonic deformation can be investigated. The Gotnia LESs represent a unique opportunity to study the mechanisms of internal deformation of rheologically contrasted layers of anhydrite (strong) and halite (weak) matrix present in the km-scale SA-RA structures. Combining seismic data characterization and sandbox experiment approaches, we describe in detail t

Abstract:
A central challenge facing firms is how to incentivize employees. While objective, output-based incentives may be theoretically ideal, in practice they may lead employees to reduce effort on non-incentivized outcomes and may fail in settings where effort is weakly tied to output. We study the effect of subjective incentives (manager performance evaluation) and objective incentives (test score-based) relative to no incentives for teachers using an RCT in 230 Pakistani schools. First, we show that subjective and objective incentives both increase test scores and have similar magnitude effects. H

Abstract:
Productivity growth has slowed in Australia in recent decades. Previous research highlighted the roles of persistently weak non-mining investment and a pervasive decline in economic dynamism, including slower reallocation of labour from low- to high-productivity firms. While these facts have so far been considered separately, this paper attempts to connect them by documenting investment patterns for firms with different levels of productivity. We find that more productive firms are more likely to invest and expand their capital stock than less productive firms, but the extent to which this is

Abstract:
Gains from government crime-reducing programs are not always visible to the average citizen. The media overexpose crime events, but the absence of crime rarely makes the news, increasing the risk that citizen may have inaccurate perceptions of security. Through a survey experiment carried out in Bogota, Colombia, a city that experienced a substantial reduction in homicides over the last decade, as well as a noticeable drop in robberies, this paper tests the effect that communicating objective crime trends could have on such perceptions. The results show that information improves perceptions of

Abstract:
Over the last two decades, there has been a growing empirical literature to test whether governments fiscal policies systematically respond to changes in the level of debt-to-GDP. Most research has focused on advanced and emerging economies and has overlooked developing countries, especially small island developing states (SIDS). While Caribbean fiscal reaction functions have been estimated in the literature, this paper fills a gap by broadly including all SIDS in the analysis. We find that weak fiscal sustainability has been maintained, but mostly due to the more recent period of the analysis

Abstract:
The IDB has been a predominant partner supporting Haiti development efforts for many years. Nowadays, the IDB is the main source of investment for the country. Considering the vital weight of road transport sector in the socio-economy of the country, the IDB has concentrated a large part of investment efforts in rehabilitating and improving national road infrastructures. In the same time, a rapid increase of motorization and relatively higher speeds have contributed to increasing the number of traffic fatalities and injuries. In 2017, road injuries were the fifth cause of mortality in Haiti. T

How do we build economic systems that recognise and work within the biophysical limits of our finite planet while simultaneously reducing poverty and inequality? This has become a defining question of our time, and the global transition to clean energy is increasingly considered an important vehicle via which we might address this ‘trilemma.’ Concerns about environmental sustainability and fossil fuel insecurity have encouraged countries around the world to transition to low-carbon energy supplies derived from clean renewables such as solar, hydro, bioenergy, geothermal and wind.

Abstract:
Marine protected areas (MPAs) are increasingly established worldwide to protect and restore degraded ecosystems. However, the level of protection varies among MPAs and has been found to affect the outcome of the closure. In no-take zones (NTZs), no fishing or extraction of marine organisms is allowed. The EU Commission recently committed to protect 30% of European waters by 2030 through the updated Biodiversity Strategy. Importantly, one third of these 30% should be of strict protection. Exactly what is meant by strict protection is not entirely clear, but fishing would likely have to be fully
