Hyperchaotic fractional-order image encryption with Knight’s tour scrambling for satellite imagery
Abstract Secure dissemination of high-resolution satellite imagery remains challenging because many image-tailored ciphers either (i) emphasize permutation-heavy...
An integrated SWOT-AHP strategic positioning framework for assessing sustainable forest wellness tourism development in mountain regions
Abstract Forest wellness tourism is an emerging form of nature-based tourism that leverages forest ecosystem services for health promotion while contributing to regional sustainable...
Analyzing the effect of new technology and knowledge adoption on workers with visual impairment through a serial mediation model
Abstract Adopting new technology and knowledge (ANTK) has become a powerful force for enhancing productivity. This study examines the impact of ANTK on work engagement among visually...
Preliminary evaluation of palmar tri-radii-related measurements for sex estimation in an Arabian Gulf population sample
Abstract This cross-sectional study assessed the utility of the distance between palmar tri-radii for sex estimation in an Arabian Gulf population. We enrolled 125 citizens of the Ar...
