BOW: Bayesian Optimization over Windows for Motion Planning in Complex Environments
This paper introduces the BOW Planner, a scalable motion planning algorithm designed to navigate robots through complex environments using constrained Bayesian optimization (CBO). Unlike traditional methods, which often struggle with kinodynamic constraints such as velocity and acceleration limits, the BOW Planner excels by concentrating on a planning window of reachable velocities and employing CBO to sample control inputs efficiently. This approach enables the planner to manage high-dimension…

A Framework for FAIR and CLEAR Ecological Data and Knowledge: Semantic Units for Synthesis and Causal Modelling
Ecological research increasingly relies on integrating heterogeneous datasets and knowledge to explain and predict complex phenomena. Yet, differences in data types, terminology, and documentation often hinder interoperability, reuse, and causal understanding. We present the Semantic Units Framework, a novel, domain-agnostic semantic modelling approach applied here to ecological data and knowledge in compliance with the FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) and CLEAR (Cognitively…

Visible-Light Photocatalytic Degradation of Cresols using Sustainable 3D-Printed Bi4O5I2-Hematite Scaffold
In photocatalysis, the reusability limit of catalysts can contribute to secondary pollution, posing ecological risks. Addressing this, the present study explores the integration of additive manufacturing with photocatalysis by decorating Bi$_4$O$_5$I$_2$ onto a 3D-printed hematite scaffold (Bi$_4$O$_5$I$_2$@3DH) for the degradation of cresols. The 3D-printed hematite grid, fabricated via direct ink writing, exhibited excellent rheological behavior ($τγ= 24$ Pa), allowing precise shape retenti…

I have great respect for Koleje Wielkopolskie train operator, for when they resupply the toilets on toilet paper, they leave the previous rolls inside, so more ecologically inclined people can use them up before using the new ones.
