	In this paper, we present a novel hybrid meta-heuristic by enhancing the Basic Bees Algorithm through the integration of a local search method namely Simulated Annealing and Variable Neighbourhood Search like algorithm. The resulted hybrid bees algorithm (BASA) is used to solve the Single Machine Scheduling Problem with Early/Tardy jobs, where the generated outcomes are compared against the Basic Bees Algorithm (BA), and against some stat-of-the-art meta-heuristics. Computational results reveal that our proposed framework outperforms the Basic Bees Algorithm, and demonstrates a competitive performance compared with some algorithms extracted from the literature.

	abstract = {Fuel cell technology\&nbsp;has been rapidly developed in the last decade owing to its clean characteristic and high efficiency.\&nbsp;Proton exchange membrane fuel cells\&nbsp;(PEMFCs) are increasingly used in transportation applications and small stationary applications; however, the cost and the unsatisfying durability of the PEMFC stack have limited their successful\&nbsp;commercialization\&nbsp;and market penetration. In recent years, thanks to the availability and the quality of emerging data of PEMFCs, digitization is happening to offer possibilities to increase the productivity and the flexibility in\&nbsp;fuel cell applications. Therefore, it is crucial to clarify the potential of digitization measures, how and where they can be applied, and their benefits. This paper focuses on the\&nbsp;degradation performance\&nbsp;of the PEMFC stacks and develops a data-driven intelligent method to predict both the short-term and long-term degradation. The dilated\&nbsp;convolutional neural network\&nbsp;is for the first time applied for predicting the time-dependent\&nbsp;fuel cell performance\&nbsp;and is proved to be more efficient than other\&nbsp;recurrent networks. To deal with the long-term performance uncertainty, a conditional neural network is proposed. Results have shown that the proposed method can predict not only the degradation tendency, but also contain the degradation behaviour dynamics.},

	abstract = {The Ki-67 proliferation index is an essential biomarker that helps pathologists to diagnose and select appropriate treatments. However, automatic evaluation of Ki-67 is difficult due to nuclei overlapping and complex variations in their properties. This paper proposes an integrated pipeline for accurate automatic counting of Ki-67, where the impact of nuclei separation techniques is highlighted. First, semantic segmentation is performed by combining the Squeez and Excitation Resnet and Unet algorithms to extract nuclei from the background. The extracted nuclei are then divided into overlapped and non-overlapped regions based on eight geometric and statistical features. A marker-based Watershed algorithm is subsequently proposed and applied only to the overlapped regions to separate nuclei. Finally, deep features are extracted from each nucleus patch using Resnet18 and classified into positive or negative by a random forest classifier. The proposed pipeline{\textquoteright}s performance is validated on a dataset from the Department of Pathology at H{\^o}pital Nord Franche-Comt{\'e} hospital.},

	abstract = {Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFCs) are a key challenger for the world{\textquoteright}s future clean and renewable energy solution. Yet, fuel cells are susceptible to operating conditions and hydrogen impurities, leading to performance loss over time in service. Hence, performance degradation prediction is gaining attention recently for fuel cell system reliability. In this work, we present a knowledge transfer approach for online voltage drop prediction. A dual-path convolution neural network is proposed to extract linearity and non-linearity from historical data and performs multi-steps ahead prediction with uncertainty quantification. Online voltage prediction is then evaluated with and without knowledge transfer using two different PEMFC datasets. Results indicate that our proposed approach with transfer knowledge can predict the voltage drop accurately with a small uncertainty range compared to the conventional approach.},

Significant features are extracted from filtered band-pass of the squared raw signal where the health indicators are automatically selected using relief technique. Optimized Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) by Partical Swarm Optimization (PSO) is used to model the non linear degradation of the extracted indicators.

	abstract = {The emerging behavior in complex systems is more complicated than the sum of the behaviors of their constituent parts. This behavior involves the propagation of faults between the parts and requires information about how the parts are related. Therefore, the prognostic function at the system-level becomes a very tough task. Conventional approaches focus on identifying faults and their probabilities of occurrence. In complex systems, this can create statistical limitations for prognostic function where component fault relies on the connected components in the system and their state of degradations. In this paper, a new Holonic agent-based approach is proposed for system-level remaining useful life (S-RUL) estimation with different dependencies. As the proposed approach can capture fault/failure mode propagation and interactions that occur in the system all the way up through the component and eventually system level, it can work as an automatic testing-tool in reliability tasks. Through a numerical example, the implementation is done in Java Agent Development Environment with and without consideration of stochastic dependence. Results show that the indirect effect of influencing components has a massive impact on the S-RUL, and the impact of stochastic dependencies should not be ignored, especially in the early stages of the system design.},

In this work, predictive maintenance of a multi-functional single machine problem is adopted to study the impact of RUL uncertainty on maintenance planning. Therefore, the PSO algorithm is integrated with a random sampling-based strategy to select a sequence that performs better for different values of RUL associated with different jobs.
