Abstract: Highway G218, the world’s longest brick-paved road, serves as a vital transportation corridor connecting northern and southern Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. However, it traverses permafrost regions and is exposed to a range of extreme climatic conditions. To ensure the safe and reliable operation of this highway, continuous deformation monitoring is essential. Multi-temporal InSAR (MT-InSAR) can monitor the ground deformation with high-resolution over a large area, thereby overcoming the spa...

Abstract: Ammonia (NH₃) is a key nitrogen-containing compound with significant environmental and energy implications. Its emission from agricultural, industrial and waste treatment processes contributes to air pollution and secondary aerosol formation. At the same time, ammonia is increasingly recognized as a carbon-free hydrogen carrier. Non-thermal plasma (NTP) technology has emerged as a promising approach for both ammonia removal and decomposition due to its ability to activate stable molecules under ...

Abstract: This study compares Minimax and Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) in Connect Four through systematic AI-versus-AI experiments. We investigate how search budget, heuristic evaluation, and rollout policies affect algorithmic performance across game stages. Results show a positive correlation between search budget and win rate for both algorithms, with MCTS benefiting more from increased simulations. Incorporating domain-specific heuristics yields substantial gains, particularly for Minimax. Stage-bas...
