It has often been argued that countries that produce natural resources mobilize less non-resource tax revenues than other countries.In this paper, we exploit the exogenous variation in the timing of giant DS oilfield discoveries to estimate the causal impact of natural resources on taxation.The timing of giant oilfield discoveries is arguably exoge
This paper proposes an innovative single image dehazing framework, termed Regional Saturation-Value Translation (RSVT), to address the color distortion problems commonly encountered in bright regions by conventional dehazing approaches.The proposed RSVT framework is developed based on two key insights derived from the HSV color space: first, the Fr
The location-routing problem (LRP) of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) in border patrol for Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance is investigated, where the locations Dryer Door Catch of UAV base stations and the UAV flying routes for visiting the targets in border area are jointly optimized.The capacity of the base station and the endurance
