Genetic Algorithm for Optimal Aircraft Routing

Airlines take the extra effort required to figure out what is the best route that their aircrafts should take so as to minimize additional costs from non-revenue flights or idle time. One way to di this is to first generate large numbers of feasible routes and then assign flights to a subset of them so […]

Statistical Shape Modelling in Ankle Osteoarthritis

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease causing pain and disability affecting weight-bearing joints. Unlike knee and hip OA, ankle OA is linked to trauma and remains under-researched despite its impact on mobility and quality of life. Joint kinematics play a key role in OA progression, as altered movement patterns accelerate cartilage degeneration by changing […]
