Calcium bright knots and the formation of chromospheric anemone jets on the Sun
Space-based observations show that the solar atmosphere from the solar chromosphere to the solar corona is filled with small-scale jets and is linked with small-scale explosions. These jets may be produced by mechanisms similar to that of large-scale flares and such jets may be related to the heating of corona and chromosphere as well as the acceleration of solar wind. The chromospheric anemone jets on the Sun remain puzzling because their footpoints (or bright knots) have not been well resolve…

Improved Anonymous Multi-Agent Path Finding Algorithm
We consider an Anonymous Multi-Agent Path-Finding (AMAPF) problem where the set of agents is confined to a graph, a set of goal vertices is given and each of these vertices has to be reached by some agent. The problem is to find an assignment of the goals to the agents as well as the collision-free paths, and we are interested in finding the solution with the optimal makespan. A well-established approach to solve this problem is to reduce it to a special type of a graph search problem, i.e. to …

SCANIA Component X Dataset: A Real-World Multivariate Time Series Dataset for Predictive Maintenance
This paper presents a description of a real-world, multivariate time series dataset collected from an anonymized engine component (called Component X) of a fleet of trucks from SCANIA, Sweden. This dataset includes diverse variables capturing detailed operational data, repair records, and specifications of trucks while maintaining confidentiality by anonymization. It is well-suited for a range of machine learning applications, such as classification, regression, survival analysis, and anomaly d…

TrustRate: A Decentralized Platform for Hijack-Resistant Anonymous Reviews
Reviews and ratings by users form a central component in several widely used products today (e.g., product reviews, ratings of online content, etc.), but today's platforms for managing such reviews are ad-hoc and vulnerable to various forms of tampering and hijack by fake reviews either by bots or motivated paid workers. We define a new metric called 'hijack-resistance' for such review platforms, and then present TrustRate, an end-to-end decentralized, hijack-resistant platform for authentic, a…
