Beyond Good Intentions: A Dual‐Model Analysis of Youth Workforce Sustainability in Depopulating Tourism Regions

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Population decline and aging pose growing challenges to economic vitality and labor market sustainability, particularly in remote regions. In Japan, national park‐related municipalities increasingly rely on tourism as a strategy for regional revitalization, yet attracting young residents to participate in the local tourism workforce remains a ...

Preliminary Study on Unit Commitment for Renewable Energy Integration Considering Operation Cost and Life Cycle Assessment

open access: yesIEEJ Transactions on Electrical and Electronic Engineering, EarlyView.
Most countries, including Japan, are focused on achieving net‐zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050, which requires quick action. Despite the increasing level of renewable power generation in power grids, fossil fuel power plants still have a significant role in producing GHG emissions, causing serious environmental issues.

Learning dispatching rules via an association rule mining approach

open access: yes, 2018
This thesis proposes a new idea using association rule mining-based approach for discovering dispatching rules in production data. Decision trees have previously been used for the same purpose of finding dispatching rules. However, the nature of the decision tree as a classification method may cause incomplete discovery of dispatching rules, which can ...

Decentralized Electric Vehicle Charging Strategy for Voltage Regulation by Charging Shifting and Reactive Power Control in Distribution System

open access: yesIEEJ Transactions on Electrical and Electronic Engineering, EarlyView.
This paper proposes a decentralized electric vehicle (EV) charging control method designed to clear voltage violations in distribution grids with high EV penetration, while considering consumer convenience. The concentration of EV charging demand can cause localized voltage violations, posing a significant challenge to grid operation.

A Quantised Push‐Sum Distributed Adaptive Momentum Algorithm for Optimisation Over Directed Networks

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we investigate a distributed constrained optimisation problem over directed networks. The agents in the networks conduct local computations and communications, endeavouring to collaboratively minimise the aggregation of all locally known convex cost functions subject to a global constraint set.
