Cluster of factors associated with physical frailty in community-dwelling elderly people by Saulo Vasconcelos Rocha, Manuela Alves dos Santos, Iasmim de Santana Meira Santos, Clarice Alves dos Santos, Mariana Alves dos Santos, Maria Luiza Oliveira Silva, Guilherme Eustáquio Furtado, Hector Luiz Rodrigues Munaro

“…As for sociodemographic variables, those who were older and had lower levels of education were more likely to have three or more risk factors. The development of actions that encourage a healthier lifestyle to favor the prevention and treatment of physical frailty, as well as to increase health literacy and knowledge, may reduce the problems related to this condition in older adults, mainly thinking about the next generations. …”

Analyzing meteorological risks to highway infrastructure in Saskatchewan by Monirul Islam, Golam Kabir, Muhammad Rehan Anis

“…However, its sustainability is increasingly challenged by meteorological hazards. This study conducts a detailed spatial risk assessment of Saskatchewan’s major highways by analyzing six climate-related factors: flood-prone areas, precipitation mm d ^−1 ), snowfall (cm d ^−1 ), extreme temperatures (minimum and maximum in °C), and wind (maximum gust speed in km h ^−1 ). …”

Federated deep reinforcement learning-based urban traffic signal optimal control by Mi Li, Xiaolong Pan, Chuhui Liu, Zirui Li

“…The proposed method improves the model generalization ability of different local models during global cross-region distributed joint training under the premise of ensuring information security and data privacy, solves the problem of non-independent and homogeneous distribution of environmental data faced by different agents in real intersection scenarios, and significantly accelerates the convergence speed of the model training phase. By reasonably designing the state, action and reward functions and determining the optimal values of several key parameters in the federated collaboration mechanism, the RL model could ensure high learning efficiency and fast convergence in the face of the gradual increase of road network size and the exponential increase of state and action space with the number of intersections. …”
