Abstract: We propose a quantum-assisted framework for solving constrained finite-horizon nonlinear optimal control problems using a barrier Sequential Quadratic Programming (SQP) approach. A quantum ...

Abstract: The promise of model-predictive control (MPC) in robotics has led to extensive development of efficient numerical optimal control solvers in line with differential dynamic programming ...

We consider the optimal scheduling of hydropower plants in a hydrothermal interconnected system. This problem, of outmost importance for large-scale power systems with a high proportion of hydraulic ...

The NovaSeq X Plus is a half-ton machine that looks like an industrial freezer, with a big touchscreen on top and racks to hold cartridges of chemicals below. Its job is to simultaneously sequence 128 ...

The South Florida Water Management District's Python Elimination Program has removed 245 pythons so far in 2025. Brian Hargrove was the top hunter in August, capturing 63 invasive snakes. The program ...

Aaron Mann removed 87 Burmese pythons in July, the most by any hunter in the South Florida Water Management District's 2025 incentive program. Mann's total brings the 2025 program's eliminated python ...
