Abstract
Solar photovoltaic (PV) power generation has become one of the most widely adopted forms of clean energy worldwide. In large-scale PV farm operation and maintenance, unmanned aerial vehicles equipped with thermal infrared (TIR) cameras are increasingly used to enable automated fault detection and classification. However, the long imaging distance and the inherently low resolution of TIR images often lead to fault patterns appearing with low contrast, making subtle discriminative features difficult to extract and posing significant challenges to achieving highly accurate fault identification and classification. To address these challenges, we propose GEPFNet, a network that exploits Group Equivariant Convolutions to explicitly model the geometric structures of faults, incorporates multi-scale processing with unified local-global contextual representations, and adopts a parallel feature fusion strategy to integrate multi-level features and enhance contextual utilization effectively. The design of feature extraction and fusion mechanisms ensures the proposed GEPFNet achieves strong robustness and generalization under complex operational conditions. The effectiveness of GEPFNet was validated on two public datasets with distinct resolutions, class distributions, and feature characteristics: PVF-10 and the Infrared Solar Module (ISM) dataset. Extensive experiments and statistical analyses demonstrate that the proposed GEPFNet achieves state-of-the-art performance on the PVF-10 dataset, obtaining an accuracy of 96.05 %+/- 0.42 for the 2-Class task and 94.64 %+/- 0.35 for the 10-Class task. On the ISM dataset, GEPFNet achieves an improvement of approximately 5 % over the baseline models. Moreover, under highly imbalanced data distributions, the proposed GEPFNet achieves average accuracy improvements of 5.83% and 3.82% on PVF-10 and ISM, respectively, further demonstrating its capability to enhance class-wise performance. With only 9.51 GFLOPs, GEPFNet also exhibits notable computational efficiency, making it well suited for PV fault classification in TIR imagery.

Abstract
Wikipedia is the largest and most globally well-known online encyclopedia, but its collaborative nature leads to a significant disparity in article quality. In this work, we explore real-time and automatic quality assessment within Wikipedia through machine-learning. We first constructed a dataset of 36,000 English articles and 145 features, then compared the performance of multiple classification and regression algorithms and studied how the number of classes and features affects the model's performance. The six-class experiments achieved a classifier accuracy of 64% and a mean absolute error of 0.09 in regression methods, which matches or beats most state-of-the-art approaches. Our model produces similar results on some non-English Wikipedias, but the error is slightly higher on other versions. We have also determined that the features measuring the article's content and revision history bring the largest performance boost.

Abstract
The stochastic dynamic inventory-routing problem (SDIRP) is a fundamental problem within supply chain operations that integrates inventory management and vehicle routing while handling the stochastic and dynamic nature of exogenous factors unveiled over time, such as customer demands, inventory supply and travel times. While practical applications require dynamic and stochastic decision-making, research in this field has only recently experienced significant growth, with most inventory-routing literature focusing on static variants. This paper reviews the current state of research on SDIRPs, identifying critical gaps and highlighting emerging trends in problem settings and decision policies. We extend the existing inventory-routing taxonomies by incorporating additional problem characteristics to better align models with real-world contexts. As a result, we highlight the need to account for further sources of uncertainty, multiple-supplier networks, perishability, multiple objectives, and pickup and delivery operations. We further categorize each study based on its policy design, investigating how different problem aspects shape decision policies. To conclude, we emphasize that large-scale and real-time problems require more attention and can benefit from decomposition approaches and learning-based methods.

Abstract
Measuring water motion is essential for oceanography, coastal engineering, and marine environmental monitoring. A wide range of sensing technologies is used to quantify water velocity, wave motion, and flow dynamics, each suited to specific spatial and temporal scales. This paper presents a comprehensive review of modern sensor technologies for marine flow measurement, covering mechanical, electromagnetic, pressure-based, acoustic, optical, MEMS-based, inertial, Lagrangian, and remote-sensing approaches. The operating principles, strengths, and limitations of each technology are examined alongside their suitability for different environments and deployment platforms, including moorings, buoys, vessels, autonomous underwater vehicles, and drifters. Special attention is given to rapidly advancing fields such as MEMS flow sensors, multi-sensor fusion, and hybrid systems that combine inertial, acoustic, and optical data. Applications range from high-resolution turbulence measurements to large-scale current mapping and wave characterization. Remaining challenges include biofouling, performance degradation in energetic shallow waters, uncertainties in indirect velocity estimation, and long-term calibration stability. By synthesizing the state of the art across sensing modalities, this review provides a unified perspective on current technological capabilities and identifies key trends shaping the future of marine flow measurement.
