The myth of the metabolic baseline: sleep–wake cycles undermine a foundational assumption in organismal biology

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Basal and standard metabolic rate (BMR and SMR) are cornerstones of physiological ecology and are assumed to be relatively fixed intrinsic properties of organisms that represent the minimum energy required to sustain life. However, this assumption is conceptually flawed. Many core maintenance processes underlying SMR are temporally partitioned

A Taxonomy of Predictive Maintenance as a Basis for Supra‐Regional Sustainability Monitoring—Literature Review

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The concept of predictive maintenance in advanced manufacturing systems is crucial from the point of view of resource efficiency in the era of high competitiveness forced by energy transformation in the digital economy. Against the backdrop of sustainability and the opportunities a data cooperative offers, the combination of predictive ...

Sustainability Challenges to the Steel Industry in a Developing Country: Sanctions and Security Issues at the Forefront

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article contributes to sustainability research by investigating the complex, geopolitically induced challenges faced by industrial supply chains under international sanctions. Using Iran's steel industry as a case, it examines sustainability barriers through the lens of stakeholder theory. A mixed methods approach was employed.

Uncertainty Calibration in Molecular Machine Learning: Comparing Evidential and Ensemble Approaches

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Raw uncertainty estimates from deep evidential regression and deep ensembles are systematically miscalibrated. Post hoc calibration aligns predicted uncertainty with true errors, improving reliability and enabling efficient active learning and reducing computational cost while preserving predictive accuracy.

Application of influence diagrams to multi‐objective allocation of firefighting resources in process plants

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Identification of firefighting strategies (i.e., which endangered units to suppress or cool first) in chemical and process plants falls under the domain of multi‐objective decision‐making (MODM), where not only the safety and integrity of the affected process plant but also the safety of on‐site and off‐site vulnerable targets matter.

A hidden Markov model and reinforcement learning‐based strategy for fault‐tolerant control

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract This study introduces a data‐driven control strategy integrating hidden Markov models (HMM) and reinforcement learning (RL) to achieve resilient, fault‐tolerant operation against persistent disturbances in nonlinear chemical processes. Called hidden Markov model and reinforcement learning (HMMRL), this strategy is evaluated in two case studies

Restricted Tweedie stochastic block models

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract The stochastic block model (SBM) is a widely used framework for community detection in networks, where the network structure is typically represented by an adjacency matrix. However, conventional SBMs are not directly applicable to an adjacency matrix that consists of nonnegative zero‐inflated continuous edge weights.
