Applying a Quantum Annealer to the Traffic Assignment Problem
(Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), 2024)The Traffic Assignment Problem (TAP) is a complex transportation optimisation problem typically solved using meta-heuristics on classical computers. Quantum computers, despite being a nascent technology, have the potential ... -
Quickest Detection of Ecological Regimes for Natural Resource Management
(Springer, 24 April 2024)We study the stochastic dynamics of natural resources under the threat of ecological regime shifts. We establish a Pareto optimal framework of regime shift detection under uncertainty that minimizes the delay with which ... -
Bulk segregant mapping and transcriptome analyses reveal the molecular mechanisms of spinetoram resistance in Spodoptera frugiperda
(Elsevier, 20 April 2024)The evolution of resistance to insecticides poses a significant threat to pest management programs. Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying insecticide resistance is essential to design sustainable pest control ... -
Accounting for quantum effects in atomistic spin dynamics
(American Physical Society, 2024)Atomistic spin dynamics (ASD) is a standard tool to model the magnetization dynamics of a variety of materials. The fundamental dynamical model underlying ASD is entirely classical. In this paper, we present two approaches ... -
Heat loss from non-circulating domestic hot water pipes increases water consumption and energy demand
(Elsevier, 26 April 2024)Hot water use in showers is a major contributor to residential water and energy consumption, and associated costs and carbon emissions. This study aims to quantify how heat loss from non-circulating pipes contributes to ...
