Energy production from solar photovoltaic (PV) plants is unpredictable, mainly due to the stochastic formation and movement of clouds or aerosol - dust particles which scatter or disperse solar radiation. Accurate forecasts of PV output are essential to Distribution and Transportation System Operators as they assist efficient solar energy trading and management of electricity grids. This work evaluates an autoregressive, computationally-light KNN-regression scheme (TSFKNN) for hourly, day-ahead forecasts of solar irradiance and energy yield of various PV technologies. The model is being tested and validated using data measured in Thuwal, Saudi Arabia. The available measured records span a 60-month period. The developed forecasting models are designed for online systems and provide increased levels of accuracy and low computational cost. Several parametric and nonparametric specifications, coupled with conventional versus outlier-robust estimation procedures are tested, in order to derive an optimal month-specific daily profile (MDP). Current results demonstrate that including intraday variability to the monthly-based irradiance models achieve improved predictive accuracy between 10% and 25% on average.

The fashion industry is currently facing a phenomenon known as fast fashion. It is due to the high variation in product types and consumer tastes. The uncertainty generated by this phenomenon is forcing logistics warehouses in the sector to rely on innovative tools based on new technologies. These must guarantee that order preparation is performed efficiently through the autonomous and optimal management of the location of the products in the warehouses. Instead of building new areas to accommodate incoming products, companies are looking to optimize the reallocation of the existing lots. The aim is to generate savings in terms of costs and movements within the warehouse. Based on the assumption that picking at height is more costly for the warehouse when picking an order, this paper proposes a storage location assignment system based on data analysis and fast heuristics to assist in making decisions about the relocation of existing stock-keeping units, either on the floor or on shelves. This model is tested in a warehouse of a fashion company to demonstrate how the use of optimization tools can help generate operational and economic savings.

Homology inference is central to many Bioinformatics analyses, from phylogeny to evolutionary rates, where the goal is to identify the genes that have evolved from the same last common ancestor. An error at the stage of inferring homology may be carried down to further analysis and may cause severe errors at the later stages. For example, an incorrect pair of genes classified as homologous may lead to incorrectly changing the topology of phylogeny inferred from using the non-homologous pair or incorrect evolutionary rate inference. At the moment, most homology inference algorithms are based purely on similarity in gene contents, which is known to be inversely proportional to the rate of evolution and time since the divergence of both sequences. However, another important characteristic for homology inference is synteny - the order of genes on the homologous chromosomes, which has been rarely used in homology inference. The major reason for not using synteny for homology inference is equal or sometimes drastic affected by the rate of evolution and time since divergence of both sequences. However, using synteny in addition to gene similarity has shown promising results. In the current study, we have tried to explore the usefulness of synteny and present cases, where synteny can aid in differentiating for borderline homologs.

The rapid evolution of smart grids has necessitated the development of advanced computational techniques to ensure efficient and reliable power distribution. This paper introduces a novel approach to solving the Optimal Power Flow (OPF) problem by leveraging Federated Learning (FL) - a decentralized machine learning paradigm. Traditional centralized methods for OPF solutions often face scalability issues and data privacy concerns when applied to large-scale, distributed smart grids. The proposed FL-based method addresses these challenges by allowing individual grid nodes to locally compute model updates without sharing raw data. This not only preserves data privacy but also reduces the communication overhead. The paper presents a comprehensive mathematical formulation of the FL-based OPF problem, followed by a detailed analysis of its convergence properties and computational efficiency. Comparative studies with conventional methods demonstrate the superiority of the proposed approach in terms of accuracy, speed, and scalability. The findings suggest that FL can serve as a robust framework for distributed OPF solutions, paving the way for more resilient and efficient smart grid operations.
