Connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) are a transformative technology that is expected to change and improve the safety and efficiency of mobility. As the main functional components of CAVs, advanced sensing technologies and control algorithms, which gather environmental information, process data, and control vehicle motion, are of great importance. The development of novel sensing technologi…

Quantitative land remote sensing has recently advanced dramatically, particularly in China. It has been largely driven by vast governmental investment, the availability of a huge amount of Chinese satellite data, geospatial information requirements for addressing pressing environmental issues and other societal benefits. Many individuals have also fostered and made great contributions to its de…
With the development of high-precision geological observation technology, in situ mineral microanalysis technology, isotope geochemical analysis technology, deep geophysical exploration technology, deep drilling, real-time mining, remote sensing highresolution hyperspectral image technology, and supercomputer and industrial intelligence, geoscience has entered an era of big data and artificial …
Most adults attempt to learn a second or even third language at some point in their life. Since language exposure is one of the most intense cognitive training regimes one can encounter, it is not surprising that previous research has shown that multilingualism can induce profound change in the brain or ‘neuroplasticity’.What remains unclear is the scope of such adult language learning indu…
Wie wird das Zusammenleben und -wirken von Menschen und Maschinen zukünftig aussehen? Lassen sich Umfang und Intensität der neuen Synergien bestimmen? Eine wichtige Rolle spielt dabei die Frage, womit wir es beim erweiterten Zusammenwirken mit künstlicher Intelligenz überhaupt zu tun haben. Ansätze, diese begrifflich-theoretisch zu beurteilen, im konkreten Fall messbar zu machen und auch e…
