Sustainable Packaging Innovation via GAN-Enabled Inverse Design
type: item
description: The urgent need for sustainable packaging solutions has intensified research efforts toward computational design methodologies that can accelerate the development of environmentally responsible materials and structures. This paper presents a novel framework for sustainable packaging innovation through the integration of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) with inverse design principles, enabling the automated generation of packaging solutions that meet stringent environmental performance criteria while maintaining functional requirements. Our approach leverages machine learning methodologies to explore vast design spaces efficiently, moving beyond traditional structure-property optimization approaches to implement intelligent search strategies that can identify optimal material compositions and structural configurations. Through the implementation of a comprehensive machine learning-enabled inverse design system, we demonstrate the capability to generate packaging designs that achieve up to 35% material reduction compared to conventional approaches while maintaining equivalent protective performance. The methodology incorporates sustainability metrics directly into the optimization process, ensuring that environmental considerations guide the search for promising design regions rather than being applied as post-hoc constraints. Validation studies using Support Vector Regression (SVR) and Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) demonstrate that machine learning approaches exhibit superior performance consistency across different training data sizes, with GPR showing particularly robust performance for sustainable packaging design applications. The findings establish machine learning-enabled inverse design as a transformative approach for sustainable packaging innovation, offering unprecedented capabilities for systematic exploration of environmentally optimized design solutions that can significantly accelerate the transition toward circular packaging economies.

Reinforcement Learning for Real-Time Energy Management in Electric Vehicles
type: item
description: The increasing penetration of electric vehicles (EVs) in modern transportation requires advanced energy management strategies to optimize power distribution, enhance battery longevity, and improve driving range. Traditional rule-based or model predictive control systems often struggle with dynamic and uncertain driving conditions, limiting their adaptability. This paper explores the application of reinforcement learning (RL), particularly deep reinforcement learning (DRL), as a data-driven and adaptive solution for real-time energy management in EVs. By formulating energy control as a sequential decision-making problem, RL agents learn optimal policies through interaction with the EV environment, adjusting strategies based on speed, terrain, state-of-charge (SOC), and driver behavior. We present a hybrid RL framework that integrates battery aging models, regenerative braking, and thermal constraints. Simulation results show that our approach significantly outperforms traditional baselines in terms of energy efficiency, charge preservation, and system responsiveness. The paper also discusses challenges in real-world deployment, including safety, explainability, and transferability of learned policies.
