Abstract
Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) enables regional monitoring of ground deformation, but operational geohazard analysis remains challenged by atmospheric artefacts, temporal decorrelation, and the need for scalable interpretation of multi-temporal products. A systematic review was conducted through searches in Scopus and Web of Science, resulting in 135 peer-reviewed scientific articles on the integration of Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) with multi-temporal InSAR (MT-InSAR). The literature is dominated by applications to landslides and land subsidence, with additional studies addressing volcanic unrest and other deformation-related hazards. Persistent Scatterer (PS) and Small-Baseline Subset (SBAS) approaches are frequently used to derive deformation time series, which are then coupled with ML/DL for the detection and mapping of active phenomena and for short-horizon forecasting. Convolutional architectures, such as Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), are commonly reported for spatial recognition tasks, while recurrent models like Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks are often applied to time-series prediction. Reported benefits include improved automation and predictive performance, although sensitivity to noise sources remains a challenge. Overall, the evidence supports AI-enabled InSAR workflows for scalable geohazard monitoring, while highlighting the need for standardized benchmarks and systematic transferability assessment. This review provides a roadmap for transitioning from research prototypes to operational early-warning systems. © 2026 by the authors.

Abstract
Humour poses a unique challenge for artificial intelligence, as it often relies on non-literal language, cultural references, and linguistic creativity. The JOKER Lab, now in its fourth year, aims to advance computational humour research through shared tasks on curated, multilingual datasets, with applications in education, computer-mediated communication and translation, and conversational AI. This paper provides an overview of the JOKER Lab held at CLEF 2025, detailing the setup and results of its three main tasks: (1) humour-aware information retrieval, which involves searching a document collection for humorous texts relevant to user queries in either English or Portuguese; (2) pun translation, focussed on humour-preserving translation of paronomastic jokes from English into French; and (3) onomastic wordplay translation, a task addressing the translation of name-based wordplay from English into French. The 2025 edition builds upon previous iterations by expanding datasets and emphasising nuanced, manual evaluation methods. The Task 1 results show a marked improvement this year, apparently due to participants' judicious combination of retrieval and filtering techniques. Tasks 2 and 3 remain challenging, not only in terms of system performance but also in terms of defining meaningful and reliable evaluation metrics.

Abstract
Renewable Energy Communities (RECs) need performance-based methods to share locally generated energy to prevent free-riding, incentivize consumer behavior, and improve overall social well-being through sector interaction. We tackle the challenge of ranking REC members for local energy allocation factor purposes, based on multidimensional household waste sorting performance, where efficiency changes over time and trade-offs exist among waste streams. We created a ranking system that balances stability (for fairness) with responsiveness (to reward improvement), compensating the REC manager promoter (municipality). The method combines historical frontier analysis with Mahalanobis distance, following: (1) DEA-derived weights to combine inputs, (2) temporal frontiers for each waste stream, (3) projects current performance onto past benchmarks with a customized rolling window, (4) calculates multivariate z-scores through Mahalanobis distance, and (5) ranks members by their statistical distance from historical norms. The proposed methodology enhancement is verified with synthetic data from 30 households over 14 months, with 8 evaluation periods. It shows 71.4% rank category stability compared to 49.0% for monthly DEA, a 22.4 percentage point increase, while still detecting performance changes. The system accounts for output correlations, with mostly positive links between waste streams ((Formula presented) glass-packages, (Formula presented) glass-organic). Mahalanobis distance fairly rewards balanced performance across related dimensions. Sensitivity tests indicate that the approach is robust to variations in parameter choices. The framework provides a straightforward computational method (<1 s per evaluation) that yields rankings with statistical significance for consumer communication. It is the first framework designed specifically for temporal performance ranking in incentive allocation. © 2026 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Inc.

Abstract
Indoor high-throughput plant phenotyping (HTPP) platforms require flexible, interoperable architectures to support reproducible trait acquisition across changing controlled-environment experiments. This paper presents GREENTRIBE, a modular multi-sensor indoor HTPP framework that integrates sensing, robotic coordination, data communication, semantic data management, and crop modelling within a unified phenotyping pipeline. Rather than treating these elements as independent modules, GREENTRIBE connects distributed sensor acquisition, robot-assisted operation, lightweight message exchange, ontology-based data organization, and processbased model assimilation through a layered architecture implemented with CAN, ROS 2, MQTT, OpenSILEX, and STICS. The platform combines a multiscale sensing network with a sensor-independent communication protocol, enabling heterogeneous imaging, environmental, and plant-monitoring devices to be configured within indoor experimental designs. To support traceable and reusable workflows, GREENTRIBE implements an ontology-driven data management layer aligned with FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) metadata standards. The architecture further links computer vision and artificial intelligence pipelines with the STICS crop model, allowing multimodal observations to be transformed into biologically interpretable phenotypic information under explicit genotype, environment, and management contexts. Platform validation demonstrated reliable communication, efficient multimodal data handling, and standardized metadata management across the sensingto-information pipeline. Under the configured acquisition schedule, GREENTRIBE achieved a maximum full data cycle of approximately 200 ms, no measurable losses up to the CAN master, high metadata completeness, and support for 1704 scheduled daily acquisition events from seven devices. Overall, GREENTRIBE provides a modular and interoperable indoor phenotyping framework for reproducible experiments and standardized multimodal phenotypic data generation.

Abstract
Polarimetric optical fiber sensors offer a promising approach for simultaneous measurement of multiple physical parameters, such as strain and twist, due to their sensitivity to changes in birefringence. However, their practical application is often restricted by cross-sensitivity between different parameters. In this work, we experimentally investigate the cross-sensitivity of a polarimetric sensor to axial strain and torsional twist. Two independent setups were used to apply controlled strain and twist to a 0.20-m fiber section, while monitoring the output state of polarization (SOP) via Stokes parameters. The response of the Stokes parameters $S_{2}$ and $S_{3}$ , as well as the orientation angle $\Psi$ and ellipticity angle $\alpha$ , were analyzed to construct sensitivity matrices correlating optical changes to mechanical inputs. A cross-sensitivity analysis was performed using the inverse of these matrices, enabling the discrimination of strain and twist contributions in combined loading scenarios. The results demonstrate a clear linear response and provide a quantitative basis for decoupling strain and twist, advancing the development of robust multiparameter sensing systems. Therefore, this work shows the feasibility of decoupling strain and twist effects using polarimetric interrogation, supporting the potential of such sensors for multiparameter sensing in practical environments.

Abstract
PurposeIn an increasingly competitive market, equipment availability is a strategic variable for the competitiveness and success of companies. The objective of the research in this article is to present contributions to reduce unplanned production stoppages and optimise the operational efficiency of an injection moulding machine. This will be achieved by developing a systematic strategy to integrate predictive and condition-based maintenance systems with maintenance management software.Design/methodology/approachThe model developed is based on the continuous monitoring of electrical signals and vibrations, with the processing of data collected in real time through a script developed in Python. This integrates the information into the maintenance management software, facilitating a quick and accurate response to component wear conditions. The methodology employed was action research, as it was a case study developed in a real context, with active participation in development and implementation, with the aim of continuous improvement.FindingsIn August, a substantial increase was observed in the primary indicators: The mean time between failures (MTBF) increased by 97.36%, the mean time to repair (MTTR) increased by 313.31%, and the downtime was reduced by 65.04%. In December, although the figures were more moderate, significant improvements were maintained: The MTBF increased by 20%, the MTTR increased by 84%, and the downtime was reduced by 79%.Originality/valueThe findings of the study indicated that the implementation of a structured approach for the acquisition and monitoring of electrical signals and vibration data was imperative to achieve substantial gains.
