The math that describes the branching pattern of trees in nature also holds for trees depicted in art—and may even underlie ...

Consequently, in this article, a novel decision-making method designed to meet the demands of multiple reactive tasks is proposed to serve autonomous driving sweepers. Smart nodes (smart sequence and ...

In highly deforested landscapes and degraded forests, large-seeded big trees are losing out to opportunistic, fast-growing species, a recent study has found. Having examined 1,207 tree species ...

Peatlands are critical ecosystems for carbon storage and biodiversity, containing more carbon than all the world's forests despite covering just 3% of the ...

This forest has plumbing. Silhouetted oak, birch and sycamore trees stand shoulder to shoulder with towering metal frames supporting drainpipes, which reach up to the very tops of the trees.

Gradient boosted decision tree (GBDT) is a popular machine learning algorithm. Current open-sourced GBDT implementations are mainly designed for single output. When there are multiple outputs, they ...

Urban Forestry commissioners have already drafted a letter of opposition against one phase of the project, which entails the removal of 376 trees within five acres of the 5,200-acre Forest Park.

Abstract: Gradient-boosting decision tree classifiers (GBDTs ... perturbation attacks using symmetric adversarial samples in order to obtain correct classification. We apply and evaluate the symmetry ...
