When it comes to the AI panic, stop the spin; not the compute

35+ min ago   (307+ words) Economy > AI Link copied The blind panic about AI is focusing on the wrong thing. If we focus our attention where it belongs, we see a solvable problem. David DeMay | September 22, 2026 The true crisis is not the volume of compute;…...

Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 9427: Human-Centered Visualization of Multidimensional Electromagnetic Information for Aviation: Effects of Visual Encoding and Spatial Layout

1+ min ago   (400+ words) Aviation electromagnetic (EM) interfaces present complex, time-varying information and require designs that minimize unnecessary cognitive demands. However, evidence on how visual encoding and spatial layout affect performance in dynamic EM tasks remains limited. This study compared two dimensions of visual…...

Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 9429: User Experiences with Prompt-Supported Text-to-Image and Text-to-Video Task Conditions for Visual Creation in a Traditional Chinese Cultural Context: An Exploratory Study

1+ min ago   (519+ words) Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is increasingly used in visual creation within a traditional Chinese cultural context, yet user experiences with prompt-supported text-to-image (T2I) and text-to-video (T2V) tasks remain underexplored. This exploratory study examined behavioural process measures and subjective experiences under prompt-supported T2I and…...

Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 9428: Local Six-DoF Pose Refinement for Small-Diameter Cylindrical Markers Using Geometric Inconsistencies in the Unwrapped Cylindrical-Surface Image

1+ min ago   (453+ words) This study proposes a local six-DoF pose-refinement method for small-diameter, pen-shaped instruments using geometric inconsistencies in unwrapped images of a paper-based cylindrical marker with an outer diameter of 8.3 mm after attachment. Full-circumference bands refine the cylinder-center position and longitudinal-axis orientation…...

1+ min ago   (655+ words) Determining the design elevations of multiple development parcels on rugged terrain is a key cost driver in large-scale site preparation. In practice, however, elevations are still selected largely by manual iteration in commercial software—a process that terminates when a…...

Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 9426: Dynamics, Statistical Analysis, and Spectral Line-Shape of Semiconductor Lasers Subject to Optical Feedback

1+ min ago   (320+ words) We explore how optical feedback (OFB) strength affects the dynamics, noise (such as relative intensity noise (RIN) and frequency noise (FN)), probability density distribution (PDD), and spectral line-shape characteristics of semiconductor lasers (SLs). We examined photon number (PN) fluctuations, frequency…...
