An Efficient Downwelling Light Sensor Data Correction Model for UAV Multi-Spectral Image DOM Generation by Siyao Wu, Yanan Lu, Wei Fan, Shengmao Zhang, Zuli Wu, Fei Wang

“…The method addresses three key issues: (1) field tests conducted in the Qingpu region show that FIM-DC markedly reduces the standard deviation of reflectance at tie points across multiple spectral bands and flight sessions, with the most substantial reduction from 15.07% to 0.58%; (2) it effectively mitigates inconsistencies in reflectance within image mosaics caused by anomalous DLS readings, thereby improving the uniformity of DOMs; and (3) FIM-DC accurately corrects the spectral curves of six land cover types in anomalous images, making them consistent with those from non-anomalous images. …”

Optimizing Assembly Error Reduction in Wind Turbine Gearboxes Using Parallel Assembly Sequence Planning and Hybrid Particle Swarm-Bacteria Foraging Optimization Algorithm by Sydney Mutale, Yong Wang, De Tian

“…Specifically, the PSBFO algorithm reduced errors from an initial value of 50 to a final value of 5 across 20 iterations, with components such as the low-speed shaft and planetary gear system showing the most substantial reductions. The 50 to 5 error reduction represents a significant decrease in assembly errors from an unoptimized (50) to an optimized (5) sequence, achieved through the PSBFO algorithm, by minimizing dimensional deviations, torque mismatches, and alignment errors across 26 critical gearbox components. …”
