    EU picks tungsten, rare earths, gallium for first critical mineral stockpile

    The European Union is planning to create its first joint stockpile of critical minerals, including tungsten, rare earths, and gallium, to lessen its dependence on China. This initiative is part of a broader effort by Western nations to secure supply chains for elements essential to defense, technology, and the energy transition. The EU is also in discussions with major ports like Rotterdam to house these strategic reserves. AI

    Q-Net: Queue Length Estimation via Kalman-based Neural Networks

    Researchers have developed Q-Net, a novel framework for estimating traffic queue lengths at signalized intersections. This AI-augmented Kalman filter integrates data from loop detectors and floating car data, addressing challenges like differing data resolutions and traffic conservation violations. Evaluations in Rotterdam demonstrated Q-Net's superior performance compared to baseline methods, offering accurate tracking of queue dynamics without expensive sensing infrastructure. AI

    IMPACT Introduces a novel AI-driven method for traffic management, potentially reducing the need for costly sensor infrastructure.
