Veronese Bellringing Art
Veronese bellringing art is a style of ringing church bells that developed around Verona, Italy from the eighteenth century. The bells are rung full circle (mouth uppermost to mouth uppermost), being held up by a rope and wheel until a note is required.

Robots and Complete Autonomy
As robotics technology advances, the question of whether robots will ever attain complete autonomy becomes increasingly relevant. While current robots possess impressive capabilities, there are still significant limitations to their autonomy. This research explores the current state of robotics technology and examines the challenges that must be overcome to achieve full autonomy.

Collaboration Skills in Educational Robotics
Educational robotics is a promising educational tool that has the potential to become a platform for the development of a range of skills. There is a scarce amount of empirical case studies that present detailed information on the way it is implemented within formal primary school education. On the other hand, even though collaboration skills are considered vital for future school graduates, it is rarely discussed as the main focus of educational robotics. Most commonly collaboration or teamwork skills are viewed as a byproduct of the robotics activities.

Ex-tangential Quadrilateral
In Euclidean geometry, an ex-tangential quadrilateral is a convex quadrilateral where the extensions of all four sides are tangent to a circle outside the quadrilateral. It has also been called an exscriptible quadrilateral. The circle is called its excircle, its radius the exradius and its center the excenter (E in the figure). The excenter lies at the intersection of six angle bisectors. These are the internal angle bisectors at two opposite vertex angles, the external angle bisectors (supplementary angle bisectors) at the other two vertex angles, and the external angle bisectors at the angles formed where the extensions of opposite sides intersect (see the figure to the right, where four of these six are dotted line segments). The ex-tangential quadrilateral is closely related to the tangential quadrilateral (where the four sides are tangent to a circle). Another name for an excircle is an escribed circle, but that name has also been used for a circle tangent to one side of a convex quadrilateral and the extensions of the adjacent two sides. In that context all convex quadrilaterals have four escribed circles, but they can at most have one excircle.

Classification of Low Illumination Image Enhancement Methods
As a critical preprocessing technique, low-illumination image enhancement has a wide range of practical applications. It aims to improve the visual perception of a given image captured without sufficient illumination. Conventional low-illumination image enhancement methods are typically implemented by improving image brightness, enhancing image contrast, and suppressing image noise simultaneously. According to the learning method used, people can classify existing low-illumination enhancement methods into four categories, i.e., supervised learning, unsupervised learning, semi-supervised learning, and zero-shot learning methods.

Development of a Smart Signalization for Emergency Vehicles
As the population increases, the number of motorized vehicles on the roads also increases. As the number of vehicles increases, traffic congestion occurs. Traffic lights are used at road junctions, intersections, pedestrian crossings, and other places where traffic needs to be controlled to avoid traffic chaos. Due to traffic lights installed in the city, queues of vehicles are formed on the streets for most of the day, and many problems arise because of this. One of the most important problems is that emergency vehicles, such as ambulances, fire engines, police cars, etc., cannot arrive on time despite traffic priorities. Emergency vehicles such as hospitals and police departments need to reach the scene in a very short time. Time loss is a problem that needs to be addressed, especially for emergency vehicles traveling in traffic.

Multimodal Sentiment Analysis in Realistic Environments
In the real world, multimodal sentiment analysis (MSA) enables the capture and analysis of sentiments by fusing multimodal information, thereby enhancing the understanding of real-world environments. The key challenges lie in handling the noise in the acquired data and achieving effective multimodal fusion. When processing the noise in data, existing methods utilize the combination of multimodal features to mitigate errors in sentiment word recognition caused by the performance limitations of automatic speech recognition (ASR) models.

Encoder–Decoder Architecture and Kernel-Sharing Mechanism
As the application of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) becomes more and more widespread, accidents such as accidental injuries to personnel, property damage, and loss and destruction of UAVs due to accidental UAV crashes also occur in daily use scenarios. To reduce the occurrence of such accidents, UAVs need to have the ability to autonomously choose a safe area to land in an accidental situation, and the key lies in realizing on-board real-time semantic segmentation processing.
