Defining Price Stability: Public Accountability of the European Central Bank’s Goal Independence by Mattias Vermeiren

“…In this article, I examine the politics of accountability underlying the ECB’s re-definition of its price stability objective through a comparison with the strategy review of the Federal Reserve, which went further than the ECB by setting an average inflation target that intentionally seeks to pursue periods of above-target inflation to compensate for periods of below-target inflation. …”

Research on improved RRT path planning algorithm based on multi-strategy fusion by Shangjing Lei, Tengyan Li, Xiaochan Gao, Pengjun Xue, Guozhu Song

“…Abstract Aiming at the problems of rapid-expanding random trees (RRT) in path planning, such as strong search blindness, high randomness, slow convergence, and non-smooth generated paths, this paper proposes a Multi-Strategy Fusion RRT (MSF-RRT) algorithm to improve RRT. Firstly, a target bias strategy introduces a higher probability that the target region samples points; secondly, a bias expansion strategy expands the sampling points to the target points in an orderly manner; then, an adaptive step size strategy adjusts the expansion step size according to the map complexity. …”
