Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are among the most common bacterial infections worldwide and increasing antimicrobial resistance (AMR) challenges conventional antibiotic treatments.Phage therapy (PT) has emerged as a promising alternative due to its specificity, safety and efficacy against multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens causing infectious dise
Global wind-energy development has increased exponentially in recent decades and is expected to double in capacity in Canada by 2040.Wind-farm development has significant implications for wildlife, particularly for raptors, where injury or death from turbine strikes and other cumulative effects are well documented.Minimizing conflict is important f
An instance of a balanced optimization problem with vector costs consists of a ground set X, a cost-vector for every element of X, and a system of feasible subsets over X.The goal is to find a feasible subset that minimizes the so-called imbalance of values in every coordinate of the underlying vector costs.Balanced optimization problems with vecto
Wind power forecasting (WPF) is important for safe, stable, and reliable integration of new energy technologies into power systems.Machine learning (ML) algorithms have recently attracted increasing attention in the field of WPF.However, opaque decisions and lack of trustworthiness of black-box models for WPF could cause scheduling risks.This Boohs
