Major challenges for automatic ship detection in optical remote sensing (ORS) images include cloud, wave, island, wake clutters, and even the high variability of targets.This paper presents a practical ship detection scheme to resolve these existing issues.The scheme contains two main coarse-to-fine stages: prescreening and discrimination.In the pr

Abstract Optimization tasks are essential in modern engineering fields such as chip design, spacecraft trajectory determination, and reactor scenario development.Recently, machine learning applications, including deep reinforcement learning (RL) and genetic algorithms (GA), have emerged in these real-world optimization tasks.We introduce a new mach

Peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading could help address grid management challenges in a decentralizing electricity system, as well as provide other social and environmental benefits.Many existing and proposed trading schemes are enabled by blockchain, a distributed ledger technology (DLT) relying on cryptographic proof of ownership Mattress rather tha

The article deals with the problem of language as an essential component of forming a Ukrainian national idea.The aim of the article is introducing the language factor (concerning the state Ukrainian language) as an element of a Ukrainian national idea and an important ethnic constituent forming a Ukrainian national state.The Ukrainian national ide

Ensuring safe food for a growing population is a challenge for agriculture.The current systems of intensive agriculture are based on important allocations of factors of production per unit area, Tools like chemical fertilizers and pesticides, allocated in order to stimulate production.In doing so, food security is ensured, by obtaining high yields
