PM2.5 Concentration Prediction Based on Markov Blanke Feature Selection and Hybrid Kernel Support Vector Regression Optimized by Particle Swarm Optimization by Lian-Hua Zhang, Ze-Hong Deng, Wen-Bo Wang

“…Abstract This study employed air quality and meteorological data as research materials and extracted the optimal feature subset by using the approximate Markov blanket-based normal maximum relevance minimum redundancy (nMRMR) algorithm to serve as the input data of the prediction model. In addition, a hybrid kernel (HK) was created to improve upon the traditional support vector regression (SVR) model. …”

Multiaircraft Optimal 4D Trajectory Planning Using Logical Constraints by Dinesh B. Seenivasan, Alberto Olivares, Ernesto Staffetti

“…Enforcing separation between aircraft, passage through waypoints, and obstacle avoidance is especially demanding in terms of modeling efforts. Indeed, in general, separation constraints require the introduction of auxiliary integer variables in the model; for passage constraints, a multiphase optimal control approach is used, and for obstacle avoidance constraints, geometric approximations of the obstacles are introduced. …”
