AT4Safe: Advanced Technologies for Safety Detection and Quality Control of Grain

Synopsis: Ensuring the quality and safety of food and food products stands as a paramount concern for both the state and its citizens. In modern society, the demand for food transcends mere sustenance; it extends to encompassing aspects like quality, safety, and nutrition. However, the safety of staple foods such as grains, oil, and food products face numerous challenges. Agricultural production grapples with issues such as soil pollution and the improper use of pesticides and fertilizers, while in the circulation and consumption phase, problems like food adulteration, counterfeiting, and irregularities in storage and transportation persist. Hence, there's an urgent need for rapid testing methods to ensure the safety of grains, oil, and food.This workshop aims to bolster the quality and safety of grain, oil, and food by introducing advanced testing technologies and methodologies. These include electromagnetic analysis technology, nondestructive detection techniques, advanced sensor technology, among others. By implementing rapid, non-destructive, and precise testing of grain, oil, and food, we can further guarantee their quality and safety.

  • EOAuto: Evolutionary Optimization and Its Applications in Autonomous Driving and Systems

    Synopsis: Optimization problems widely exist in autonomous driving and systems, such as vehicle scheduling, path planning, etc. Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) have been widely used to solve optimization problems across various real-world applications for their advantages that they can provide multiple solutions in a single run for flexible selection and they make no special assumptions about the problem properties such as differentiability and continuity. With the rapid development of autonomous driving and systems, there is a trend to use EAs to solve optimization problems in this field that are difficult to solve by traditional mathematical optimization methods. This workshop aims to investigate the development of the application of EAs in the field of autonomous driving and systems.
