When coping with the urgent challenge of locating and rescuing a deep-sea submersible in the event of communication or power failure, environmental uncertainty in the ocean can not be ignored. However, classic physical models are limited to…

Ongoing traffic changes, including those triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic, reveal the necessity to adapt our public transport systems to the ever-changing users' needs. This work shows that single and multi objective stances can be…

This study proposes an innovative model-based modular approach (MMA) to dynamically optimize order matching and vehicle relocation in a ride-hailing platform. MMA utilizes a two-layer and modular modeling structure. The upper layer…

With the electrification in freight transportation, the availability of fast-charging facilities becomes essential to facilitate en-route charging for freight electric vehicles. Most studies focus on planning charging facilities based on…

We propose an inference method for detecting multiple change points in high-dimensional time series, targeting dense or spatially clustered signals. Our method aggregates moving sum (MOSUM) statistics cross-sectionally by an $\ell^2$-norm…

In this article, we propose a systematic approach for fire station location planning. We develop machine learning models, based on Random Forest and Extreme Gradient Boosting, for demand prediction and utilize the models further to define a…

This paper addresses an uplink localization problem in which a base station (BS) aims to locate a remote user with the help of reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs). We propose a strategy in which the user transmits pilots sequentially…

Was investigated in this paper the use of a search strategy in the problem of finding the best path among multiple origins and multiple destinations. In this kind of problem, it must be decided within a lot of combinations which is the best…

Improving access to essential public services like healthcare and education is crucial for human development, particularly in rural Sub-Saharan Africa. However, limited reliable transportation and sparse public facilities present…

This paper studies downlink energy efficiency (EE) of a cellular massive Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) system with massive number of antennas at both base station (BS) and relay considering cell-edge users which is less investigated…

In a carsharing system, a fleet of cars is distributed at stations in an urban area, customers can take and return cars at any time and station. For operating such a system in a satisfactory way, the stations have to keep a good ratio…

We consider the band assignment problem in dual band systems, where the base-station (BS) chooses one of the two available frequency bands (centimeter-wave and millimeter-wave bands) to communicate data to the mobile station (MS). While the…

In this paper, a long-term survival model under competing risks is considered. The unobserved number of competing risks is assumed to follow a negative binomial distribution that can capture both over- and under-dispersion. Considering the…

Planning the layout of bicycle-sharing stations is a complex process, especially in cities where bicycle sharing systems are just being implemented. Urban planners often have to make a lot of estimates based on both publicly available data…

Fire stations are among the most crucial emergency facilities in urban emergency control system in terms of their quick response to fires and other emergencies. Location plannings for fire stations have a significant influence on their…

Autonomous mobility on demand systems, though still in their infancy, have very promising prospects in providing urban population with sustainable and safe personal mobility in the near future. While much research has been conducted on both…

Deterministic compartmental models are predominantly used in the modeling of infectious diseases, though stochastic models are considered more realistic, yet are complicated to estimate due to missing data. In this paper we present a novel…

The use of autonomous vehicles for target localization in modern applications has emphasized their superior efficiency, improved safety, and cost advantages over human-operated methods. For localization tasks, autonomous vehicles can be…

This paper considers the problem of finding a landing spot for a drone in a dense urban environment. The conflicting requirement of fast exploration and high resolution is solved using a multi-resolution approach, by which visual…

This work addresses electric vehicle (EV) charging station placement through a bi-level optimization model, where the upper-level planner maximizes net revenue by selecting station locations under budget constraints, while EV users at the…
