Maximizing Seaweed Growth on Autonomous Farms: A Dynamic Programming Approach for Underactuated Systems Navigating on Uncertain Ocean Currents
Seaweed biomass presents a substantial opportunity for climate mitigation, yet to realize its potential, farming must be expanded to the vast open oceans. However, in the open ocean neither anchored farming nor floating farms with powerful engines are economically viable. Thus, a potential solution are farms that operate by going with the flow, utilizing minimal propulsion to strategically leverage beneficial ocean currents. In this work, we focus on low-power autonomous seaweed farms and desig…

Incorporating Correlated Nugget Effects in Multivariate Spatial Models: An Application to Argo Ocean Data
Accurate analysis of global oceanographic data, such as temperature and salinity profiles from the Argo program, requires geostatistical models capable of capturing complex spatial dependencies. This study introduces Gaussian and non-Gaussian hierarchical multivariate Matérn-SPDE models with correlated nugget effects to account for small-scale variability and measurement error correlations. Using simulations and Argo data, we demonstrate that incorporating correlated nugget effects significant…

AI4Contracts: LLM & RAG-Powered Encoding of Financial Derivative Contracts
Large Language Models (LLMs) and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) are reshaping how AI systems extract and organize information from unstructured text. A key challenge is designing AI methods that can incrementally extract, structure, and validate information while preserving hierarchical and contextual relationships. We introduce CDMizer, a template-driven, LLM, and RAG-based framework for structured text transformation. By leveraging depth-based retrieval and hierarchical generation, CDMi…

Towards Real-Time Interpolation for Enhanced AUV Deep Sea Mapping
Approximately seventy-one percent of the Earth is covered in water. Of that area, ninety-five percent of the ocean has never been explored or mapped. There are several engineering challenges that have prevented the exploration of the deep ocean through human or autonomous means. These challenges include but are not limited to high pressure, cold temperatures, little natural light, corrosion of materials, and communication. Ongoing research has been focused on trying to find optimal and low-cost…

Regalo #llibres tècnics, preferiblement a #Osona / #Vic , però les poblacions de #Catalunya al voltant de la R3 fins a #Barcelona també les considero (no tinc cotxe i no vull haver d'enviar paquets).
La editorial va cometre alguns errors i en tinc duplicats. Els que regalo:
- Math for Security
- The Shape of Data
- Statistics Done Wrong
- The Rust Programming Language (2021 Edition)
Si pot ser prefereixo que els receptors siguin gent que no es pugui permetre gaires luxes, per motius d'equitat.
S'agreixen reenviaments d'aquest missatge :) .

Waves in ice
Ocean surface waves can propagate long distances through regions containing floating ice covers. The impacts ocean waves have on the ice covers are of interest in the climate change era, as the polar regions experience pressure from rising temperatures. This chapter provides a review of observations and theoretical models for ocean wave propagation through the marginal ice zone, landfast ice and ice shelves. It traces the historical evolution of the field, from seminal work in the 1970s-80s up …

I'm giving away some technical #books, preferably around #Osona / #Vic , but any #Catalonia town around the R3 line down to #Barcelona is also ok. I don't have a car and I'd prefer not having to package and send them.
The publisher made some mistakes so I have duplicates, the ones I'm giving away:
- Math for Security
- The Shape of Data
- Statistics Done Wrong
- The Rust Programming Language (2021 Edition)
I'd also prefer giving it to people who can't afford buying expensive books often, for economical fairness reasons.
