Show moreWith the development of aerospace technologies, the mission planning of agile earth observation satellites has to consider several objectives simultaneously, such as profit, observation task number, image quality, resource balance, and observation timeliness. In this paper, a five-objective mixed-integer optimization problem is formulated for agile satellite mission planning. Preference-based multi-objective evolutionary algorithms, i.e., T-MOEA/D-TCH, T-MOEA/D-PBI, and T-NSGA-III are applied to solve the problem. Problem-specific coding and decoding approaches are proposed based on heuristic rules. Experiments have shown the advantage of integrating preferences in many-objective satellite mission planning. A comparative study is conducted with other state-of-the-art preference-based methods (T-NSGA-II, T-RVEA, and MOEA/D-c). Results have demonstrated that the proposed T-MOEA/D-TCH has the best performance with regard to IGD and elapsed runtime. An interactive framework is also proposed for the decision maker to adjust preferences during the search. We have exemplified that a more satisfactory solution could be gained through the interactive approach. Show less

Show moreWith contributions from the global natural product (NP) research community, and continuing the Raw Data Initiative, this review collects a comprehensive demonstration of the immense scientific value of disseminating raw nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) data, independently of, and in parallel with, classical publishing outlets. A comprehensive compilation of historic to present-day cases as well as contemporary and future applications show that addressing the urgent need for a repository of publicly accessible raw NMR data has the potential to transform natural products (NPs) and associated fields of chemical and biomedical research. The call for advancing open sharing mechanisms for raw data is intended to enhance the transparency of experimental protocols, augment the reproducibility of reported outcomes, including biological studies, become a regular component of responsible research, and thereby enrich the integrity of NP research and related fields.
