When the River Runs Low: Heterogeneous Impacts of Transportation Disruptions on Local Grain Basis

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A substantial share of U.S. soybean and corn exports from the Midwest moves by barge along the Mississippi River system to export terminals in the Louisiana Gulf. Transportation costs between Midwestern grain elevators and export terminals create a wedge between prices at these locations, and shocks to these costs are partially passed on to ...

A Comprehensive Comparative Study of Active Learning Schemes for Nanophotonics Design

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Active learning (AL) strategies are benchmarked for the binary design of planar multilayer nanophotonic structures. Factorization machines combined with quantum annealing (QA) become effective as dimensionality increases. Hybrid QA provides the strongest results for 100‐layer problems, highlighting the importance of optimization method selection in ...
