欢迎投稿由浙江大学台州研究院寇磊老师和郑军老师共同组建的Workshop 16（第二届模式识别、机器视觉和智能算法国际会议PRMVIA 2024)

Summary: Recently, as the response to higher operating speeds and increased mileage of railways has made railway operations and maintenance one of the most important issues for all countries, interest in building more environmentally friendly and energy-efficient railways has been growing. The long-term prospects for railway development are expected to be even more ambitious, despite the decline in maritime transport in recent years due to global pandemics and the situation in the Red Sea.

 

In addition to environmental issues, the social conditions surrounding railways are constantly changing, such as the expansion of urbanized areas, the complexity of living spaces, changes in living patterns, and new types of hazards. Considering these changes, for the expansion and continuous development of railway construction, it is necessary to more actively accommodate changes in social conditions through the discovery and application of new materials and technologies.

 

The aim of this Workshop is to present the latest technologies developed for the planning, design, construction, maintenance and rehabilitation of railway infrastructure. Through this Workshop, we hope to provide an opportunity for railway researchers to share the latest technologies related to railway infrastructure and to prepare for a more advanced decade together.
