Train Scheduling Optimization for an Urban Rail Transit Line: A Simulated-Annealing Algorithm Using a Large Neighborhood Search Metaheuristic

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Transportation, 2022
This paper describes an optimization model for an irregular train schedule. The aim is to optimize both the maximum train loading rate and the average deviation of departure intervals under time-varying passenger transport demand for an urban rail ...

A Decision Support Tool for Energy-Optimising Railway Timetables Based on Behavioural Data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Energy-efficient train operation can reduce operating costsand contribute to a reduction in CO2 emissions. To utilise the fullpotential of energy-efficient driving, energy-efficient timetabling is crucial.To address this problem, we propose a decision ...

Therapeutic Apheresis for Intravenous Methylprednisolone‐Refractory Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder: Clinical and Radiological Outcomes in a Single‐Center Case Series

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a relapsing autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. High‐dose intravenous methylprednisolone (IVMP) is the standard first‐line therapy for acute attacks, although some patients remain refractory.

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

Machine Learning and Irresponsible Inference: Morally Assessing the Training Data for Image Recognition Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Just as humans can draw conclusions responsibly or irresponsibly, so too can computers. Machine learning systems that have been trained on data sets that include irresponsible judgments are likely to yield irresponsible predictions as outputs.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Operational Challenges of the Bangkok Airport Rail Link

open access: yesUrban Rail Transit, 2020
The airport rail link (ARL) was launched in 2010 as a premium rail transit service between the inner city of Bangkok and the airport. In 2014, the express service was canceled due to its unpopularity and transformed into the commuter service.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.
