Breast cancer is the most common life-threatening cancer in women and one of the leading causes of death. Early diagnosis is one of the best defenses against the spread of breast cancer. Machine learning (ML) tools are now available for cancer detection and prediction. This study presents a...

The research objective of the present study is the development of a model for increased accuracy of steel-price forecasts, which is of paramount importance for firms who use steel as an input and thus need to make informed decisions with regard to an optimal amount and type of hedge against...

Distributed renewable energy systems are now widely installed in many buildings, transforming the buildings into 'electricity prosumers'. Additionally, managing shared energy usage and trade in smart buildings continues to be a significant difficulty. The main goal of solving such problems is to...

Ocean energy technologies are in their developmental stages, like other renewable energy sources. To be useable in the energy market, most components of wave energy devices require further improvement. Additionally, wave resource characteristics must be evaluated and estimated correctly to...

In this paper, we describe the Factored Value MCTS Hybrid Cost-Max-Plus algorithm, a collection of decision-making algorithms (centralized, decentralized, and hybrid) for a multi-agent system in a collaborative setting that considers action costs. Our proposed algorithm is made up of two steps....

We study the interaction between algorithmic advice and human decisions using high-resolution hotel-room pricing data. We document that price setting frictions, arising from adjustment costs of human decision makers, induce a conflict of interest with the algorithmic advisor. A model of advice...
