Droge worst dopen in zwarte peper is in mijn beleving geheel iets anders dan droge 'worst met zwarte peper'.
Wat droge worst betreft:
Picnic vs Jumbo 8 - 2

Minkowski-MambaNet: A Point Cloud Framework with Selective State Space Models for Forest Biomass Quantification
Accurate forest biomass quantification is vital for carbon cycle monitoring. While airborne LiDAR excels at capturing 3D forest structure, directly estimating woody volume and Aboveground Biomass (AGB) from point clouds is challenging due to difficulties in modeling long-range dependencies needed to distinguish trees.We propose Minkowski-MambaNet, a novel deep learning framework that directly estimates volume and AGB from raw LiDAR. Its key innovation is integrating the Mamba model's Selective …

STASE: A spatialized text-to-audio synthesis engine for music generation
While many text-to-audio systems produce monophonic or fixed-stereo outputs, generating audio with user-defined spatial properties remains a challenge. Existing deep learning-based spatialization methods often rely on latent-space manipulations, which can limit direct control over psychoacoustic parameters critical to spatial perception. To address this, we introduce STASE, a system that leverages a Large Language Model (LLM) as an agent to interpret spatial cues from text. A key feature of STA…

OffsetCrust: Variable-Radius Offset Approximation with Power Diagrams
Offset surfaces, defined as the Minkowski sum of a base surface and a rolling ball, play a crucial role in geometry processing, with applications ranging from coverage motion planning to brush modeling. While considerable progress has been made in computing constant-radius offset surfaces, computing variable-radius offset surfaces remains a challenging problem. In this paper, we present OffsetCrust, a novel framework that efficiently addresses the variable-radius offsetting problem by computing…

Understanding NFTs from EIP Standards
We argue that the technical foundations of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) remain inadequately understood. Prior research has focused on market dynamics, user behavior, and isolated security incidents, yet systematic analysis of the standards underpinning NFT functionality is largely absent. We present the first study of NFTs through the lens of Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs). We conduct a large-scale empirical analysis of 191 NFT-related EIPs and 10K+ Ethereum Magicians discussions (as of …
