This paper introduces a special issue of the Journal Transport Problems on group research projects developed within the RailNewcastle summer school organised and held in Newcastle upon Tyne, North East England.The participants (both educators and students) Outer Door Moulding worked together in multinational and multidisciplinary groups to produce
Estimation of black-box functions often requires evaluating an extensive number of expensive noisy points.Learning algorithms can actively compare the similarity between the evaluated and unevaluated points to determine the most informative subsequent points for efficient Outer Door Moulding estimation of expensive functions in a sequential procedu
The use of unmanned aircraft vehicles (UAVs) in volcanological contexts is a key challenge in studying volcanoes and improving efficiency in the monitoring of Neem volcanic activity.The coupling of ground and satellite measurements has been reinforced at an intermediate scale thanks to UAV measurements.Along with carrying out visible and infrared m
Chamaedaphne calyculata (L.) Moench is a rare post-glacial relic, which reaches the south-western boundary of its European range in Poland.However, little is known about the morphology and biology of this species.In this study a biometric analysis of assimilating leaves and general morphological appearance was carried out; flowering, fruiting, and
The snow ablation optimization (SAO) is a new metaheuristic motivated by the melting and sublimation properties of snow.In this work, the economic load dispatch (ELD) problem, one of the key components of a power system, is solved using the SAO.There is one kind of ELD, that is focused on minimizing fuel usage costs.Assessing the reliability of the
