Advanced evaluation of performance of machine learning models for soapstock splitting optimisation under uncertainty by Bartosz Szeląg, Krzysztof Barbusiński, Michał Stachura, Przemysław Kowal, Adam Kiczko, Eldon R. Rene

“…GSA showed that the key influence on Porg (organic phosphorus), COD (chemical oxygen demand) and AN (acid number) was the phosphorus content of the oil, and less important were the operational parameters of the soapstock splitting system. Multi-criteria optimisation under uncertainty using a genetic algorithm (NSGA II) showed a significant influence of phosphorus content uncertainty on the choice of soapstock splitting operating conditions. …”

Optimising management against dynamic threats: A spatially explicit approach based on integer programming by José Salgado‐Rojas, Virgilio Hermoso, Eduardo Álvarez‐Miranda

“…Abstract Defining strategies to control dynamic threats is a highly complex problem that is defined by the biological characteristics of the threatening agents (e.g. invasive species), the landscape context and the management objective within the constraints of limited financial resources. While different optimisation models have focussed on finding frameworks capable of incorporating complex dynamics between species and threats, they often overlook the spatial aspect of management plans or address it at a very coarse resolution. …”
