From accurate prediction to useful decisions

The collection follows the path from sensing and forecasting to control, design and system operation. It highlights where AI models add value, where physical knowledge is embedded, and how uncertainty is handled.

Every paper has a stable page with verified bibliographic metadata, a concise problem–method–evidence summary, a representative figure and a direct DOI link.
