Integration Of Control For Diverse Multi-Robot System, Lacey Hunt, John Shovic Jul 2024

Integration Of Control For Diverse Multi-Robot System, Lacey Hunt, John Shovic

Idaho Conference on Undergraduate Research

The University of Idaho’s Center for Intelligent Industrial Robotics (CI2R) aims to further research in the fields of precision agriculture and industrial automation. One ongoing project is an automated farming robot (FarmBot) which autonomously takes care of crops using light from a temporary, fixed lighting system. A new, Programmable Logic Controller (PLC)-controlled variable height Light-Emitting Diode (LED) lighting gantry robot has been designed and built, thanks to grants from the University’s Office of Undergraduate Research, but its software is yet to be fully integrated into the FarmBot autonomous plant care system. The use of a PLC, an industrial automation tool, …


Project Evergreen: Ai Weed Detection In A Usfs Conifer Nursery, Kevin Wing, John Shovic Jul 2024

Project Evergreen: Ai Weed Detection In A Usfs Conifer Nursery, Kevin Wing, John Shovic

Idaho Conference on Undergraduate Research

This research, conducted under Project Evergreen, aims to develop a computer vision-based solution to detect weeds in conifer sapling rows within a United States Forest Service (USFS) nursery. The presence of weeds in these rows significantly impacts seedling viability, posing a challenge to reforestation efforts. Leveraging advanced machine vision techniques, this study aims to enhance the precision and efficiency of weed management practices by identifying weeds in the field, thereby improving seedling survival rates. The YOLO v8 model was selected for its superior real-time capabilities and high accuracy. YOLO (You Only Look Once) is a single-pass convolutional neural network known …


Accelerating Computational Catalytic Analysis Of Perovskite Oxides With Machine Learning, Zheng Yang Stephen Lim, Oliviero Andreussi Jul 2024

Accelerating Computational Catalytic Analysis Of Perovskite Oxides With Machine Learning, Zheng Yang Stephen Lim, Oliviero Andreussi

Idaho Conference on Undergraduate Research

Electrocatalysts have significant impacts in energy conversion and storage technologies, otherwise known as electrolysis. During electrolysis, ORR and OER reactions take place. Finding cheaper electrocatalysts is necessary to advance ORR and OER reactions in the future.


The Prohibition Of Annexations And The Foundations Of Modern International Law, Ingrid W. Brunk, Monica Hakimi Jul 2024

The Prohibition Of Annexations And The Foundations Of Modern International Law, Ingrid W. Brunk, Monica Hakimi

Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications

The international legal norm that prohibits forcible annexations of territory is foundational to modern international law. It lies at the core of three projects that have been central to the enterprise: (1) to settle title to territory as the basis for establishing state authority; (2) to regulate the use of force across settled borders; and (3) to provide for people within settled borders collectively to determine their own fates. Prohibiting forcible annexations is integral to each of these projects independently, and by tying them together, has had a transformative effect on the legal system as a whole. However, its significance …


The Needless Search For A Founding-Era "Hearsay" Definition, Jeffrey Bellin Jul 2024

The Needless Search For A Founding-Era "Hearsay" Definition, Jeffrey Bellin

Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications

Modern Confrontation Clause doctrine permits only unconfronted "out-of-court statements that would have been admissible in a criminal case at the time of the founding." To operationalize this concept, the Supreme Court identifies "testimonial hearsay" as the Clause's primary concern. Its opinions regularly dive into the historical record to refine what counts as "testimonial" but ignore that record in defining "hearsay." This omission cannot last. Cases in the lower courts, and one on the Court's recent docket, concern testimonial but (arguably) non-hearsay statements. And while confrontation jurisprudence is supposed to be tied to founding-era evidence law, the "hearsay" definition, casually referenced …


A "Profoundly Contractarian Predisposition": Delaware Courts Decide Recent Drafting Disputes By Limiting Their Review To Four Corners Of Contracts, Robert S. Reder, Kathleen E. Sharkey Jul 2024

A "Profoundly Contractarian Predisposition": Delaware Courts Decide Recent Drafting Disputes By Limiting Their Review To Four Corners Of Contracts, Robert S. Reder, Kathleen E. Sharkey

Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications

In the decisions discussed herein, both the Delaware Supreme Court ("Supreme Court") and the Delaware Court of Chancery ("Chancery Court") reaffirmed the Delaware judiciary's commitment to honoring contract language, whenever possible, to settle contractual disputes. Absent irreconcilable ambiguity, no coloring outside the lines will be considered. The goal generally is to reflect the intent of the parties while avoiding absurd or illogical results. Ironically, in each of these cases, better drafting could have ensured the parties were on the same page: " In Arwood v. AW Site Services, Vice Chancellor Slights, confirming Delaware's status as "'more contractarian' than most states," …


The Effects Of Relational Human Resource Management: A Moderated Mediation Model Of Positive Affective Climate And Collective Occupational Calling, Pingshu Li, Yuanmei (Elly) Qu, Mengwei Li, Patrick E. Downes, Guofeng Wang Jul 2024

The Effects Of Relational Human Resource Management: A Moderated Mediation Model Of Positive Affective Climate And Collective Occupational Calling, Pingshu Li, Yuanmei (Elly) Qu, Mengwei Li, Patrick E. Downes, Guofeng Wang

Management Faculty Publications

Relationship-oriented human resource management (HRM) contributes to organizational functioning by promoting employee relationships, coordination, and cooperation. We propose unit-level positive affective climate as a motivational mechanism through which relationship-oriented HR systems can positively influence unit service quality and relationships with beneficiaries, and prevent individual emotional exhaustion. Moreover, we propose collective occupational calling serves as an alternative motivational source that can substitute for the positive effects of positive affective climate. In analyzing a sample composed of 742 nurses from 48 nursing units of two hospitals in China with data collection at three time points before and after the COVID-19 outbreak, our …
