This page only covers the 2,234 papers with at least one laboratory traced to this country, between 28 October 2025 and 18 August 2026. It is not the entire output of the country.
This is the country of the laboratory, never the nationality of individuals. A paper co-signed from several countries counts in each of them. Coverage is partial and the gap is not random: a researcher whose institution is unknown usually publishes little, which over-represents established labs.

Emerging signals
Phrases appearing markedly more often than usual in this country's papers. Because a national corpus is far smaller than the global one, the selection threshold is proportional to its volume: percentages are jumpier, and a term can rise on a handful of papers.

However, existing 3D memory systems function merely as passive recorders: they store… | Control systems | Robot Manipulation and Learning |
| Closing the Affective Loop: Multimodal Speaker-Listener Emotion-Dynamics-Aware Empathetic Social Robots 18 August 2026 | Empathetic social robots should respond not only to what users say, but also to how their emotions dynamically evolve during interaction. However, existing empathetic dialogue… | Social Psychology | Social Robot Interaction and HRI |
| Domain-Agnostic Neural Topic Modeling with Contextual Token-Level Semantic Graph Representation 18 August 2026 | Recent advances in neural topic models with pre-trained language models (PLMs) have achieved strong performance by leveraging general-domain pre-training, yet their topic… | AI | Large Language Models |
| DuplexGen: Decoupling Content, Timing, and Acoustics for Synthetic Dialogue Speech 18 August 2026 | Synthetic conversational speech has become an important resource for developing and evaluating conversational speech systems. However, existing dialogue synthesis pipelines… | AI | Large Language Models |
| A Plug-and-Play 2D Motion Interface for Real-World Motion Language Models 18 August 2026 | Motion Language Models (MoLMs) typically understand human motions by tokenizing 3D motion and processing the resulting tokens using a language model. However, obtaining accurate… | Control systems | Human Motion and Animation |
| Beyond Single Object: Learning 3D Relations with Large Language Models 18 August 2026 | We address a fundamental gap in 3D-LLMs: existing models focus on single-object/scene description, struggling with detailed, inter-object comparison. We propose a framework for… | Vision | Multimodal Machine Learning Applications |
| WorldRover: A Scalable Synthetic Video Data Engine for World Exploration with Rich Annotations 18 August 2026 | Learning to generate or reconstruct explorable worlds requires video paired with more than RGB: camera motion, scene geometry, temporal correspondence and, for interactive models,… | Vision | Advanced Vision and Imaging |
| CG-GLORE: A Conjugate Gradient-Based Global-Local Regularization Network for Sparse-View CT Reconstruction 18 August 2026 | Sparse-view computed tomography (CT) reduces radiation dose by acquiring fewer projection views, but the resulting inverse problem is highly ill-posed and often produces severe… | Radiology, Nuclear Medicine and Imaging | Medical Imaging Techniques and Applications |
| MotionGS-SLAM: Event-Modulated Gaussian Splatting for Motion-Blur Robust SLAM 18 August 2026 | Current Vision-based SLAM systems fail catastrophically when motion blur corrupts the visual input, as they attempt the ill-posed inverse problem of recovering sharp content from… | Aerospace Engineering | Robotics and Sensor-Based Localization |
| Registration-Free Hyperspectral Reconstruction from RGB via a Permutation-Invariant Gram-Matrix Principle 18 August 2026 | Reconstructing a spatially and spectrally high-resolution hyperspectral image (HR-HSI) from a low-resolution HSI (LR-HSI) and a high-resolution RGB image (HR-RGB) usually assumes… | Media Technology | Remote-Sensing Image Classification |

| RGBX-Next: Towards Realistic Generative Rendering from G-Buffers 17 August 2026 | Diffusion models have achieved impressive results in image, video, and streaming generation. However, compared to traditional 3D rendering, they still lack precise control over… | Vision | Generative Adversarial Networks and Image Synthesis |
| Face Re-morphing: Differential Morphing Attack Detection via Feature-Space Similarity Changes 17 August 2026 | Face morphing attacks pose a serious threat to face recognition systems because a single morphed document image can be matched to multiple contributors. Differential morphing… | Vision | Face recognition and analysis |
| Bootstrapping Niche Multilingual Code Translation via Reinforcement Learning with Execution-Based Verifiable Supervision 17 August 2026 | Code translation must preserve executable behavior across many programming languages, yet neural code translation has largely focused on a few popular languages such as C++, Java,… | AI | Natural Language Processing Techniques |

Across 69,649 papers with at least one lab located, i.e. 76% of the 91,354 papers fully processed between 27 October 2025 and 21 August 2026. 167 countries represented.
This is the country of the laboratory, never the nationality of individuals. A paper signed from several countries counts for each of them, so the shares add up to more than 100%. Coverage is partial and the gap is not random: a researcher whose institution is unknown usually publishes little, which over-represents established labs.
