Improved Ant Colony Algorithm⁃Based Mobile Robot Path Planning

open access: yesLiaoning Shiyou Huagong Daxue xuebao
An improved ant colony algorithm is proposed to address issues such as susceptibility to local optima and slow convergence speed. Firstly, the relationship between the current target node and the next target node and the normal distribution function are ...

Prioritized Real‐Time UAV‐Based Vessel Detection for Efficient Maritime Search

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 2, Page 561-577, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Real‐time vessel detection in maritime environments is crucial for diverse applications requiring speed and accuracy. Static camera views often introduce blind spots, compromising detection efficiency. This paper proposes a novel, real‐time UAV‐based system that uses a dynamic camera control strategy to address this limitation.

Sociology and The Complexity of What Is Missing

open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, Volume 77, Issue 2, Page 332-344, March 2026.
ABSTRACT What is ‘missed’ by sociological literature underpinned by assumptions of presence that a missing approach can rectify? I appropriate a metaphysics of presence and an alternative focus on what is missing as ontological foci to revisit complexity studies in sociology.

Multi-point path planning based on the algorithm of colony-particle swarm optimization

open access: yesTongxin xuebao, 2019
The problem of multi-point path planning is a NP-hard problem,which is equivalent to finding the shortest path of a starting point and some specific node.Aiming at the problem of multi-point path planning,a retrospective ant colony-particle swarm ...

Toward a global repository of insect traits (GRIT)

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 2, Page 253-267, March 2026.
Biodiversity loss is accelerating, yet insect conservation is hindered by the absence of a centralised, comprehensive trait database. We propose the GRIT, a FAIR, open‐access platform uniting datasets and collaborators worldwide. GRIT will harness advanced computational tools for trait acquisition and imputation, enabling large‐scale ecological ...

Optimal energy management of water networks under quality conditions

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 926-951, March 2026.
Abstract In the context of sustainability, which has become fundamental today, we aim to optimize (reduce) the energy consumption due to the use of pumps that bring water from all the different reservoirs to the nodes of the distribution network. The proposed model allows us, thanks to the use of smart meters and new 5G technologies, to determine the ...
