Investigation of the potential of waxworm saliva, the secretion of Galleria mellonella, for plastic degradation.

This study explores how to predict and minimize distortion in 3D printed parts, particularly when using affordable PLA filament. The researchers developed a model using a gradient boosting regressor trained on 3D printing data, aiming to predict the necessary CAD dimensions to counteract print distortion.

Fertilizers are commonly used to improve agricultural yield. Unfortunately, chemical fertilizers can seep into drinking water, potentially harming humans and other forms of life. Here, the authors investigate the effect of fertilizer on the water quality of Saratoga Creek over time. They find that fertilizers can alter the acidity of the creek's water, which can be harmful to aquatic species, as well as increase the levels of nitrates temporarily.

In this study, three models are used to test the hypothesis that data-centric artificial intelligence (AI) will improve the performance of machine learning.
