FIRST REVISED PAPER II — COMPLETE OVERLEAF PACKAGE
Target journal: Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence (Elsevier)

UPLOAD TO OVERLEAF
1. Create a new blank project in Overleaf.
2. Upload all files from this ZIP, or upload the ZIP directly.
3. The root document is main.tex.
4. Compile with pdfLaTeX.

FILES
- main.tex — complete manuscript source and preamble; includes all TikZ figures, tables, equations, algorithm, and bibliography used by the current draft.
- references.bib — bibliography database retained for the Paper II reference record and future BibTeX migration/audit. The current main.tex intentionally contains its bibliography entries directly so compilation does not depend on a separate BibTeX run and cannot produce missing [?] citations.
- First_Revised_Paper_II_EAAI.pdf — compiled reference PDF.
- README.txt — these instructions.

DEPENDENCIES
The source uses standard Overleaf/TeX Live packages: elsarticle, amsmath, amssymb, mathtools, bm, booktabs, tabularx, array, multirow, longtable, graphicx, tikz, pgfplots, algorithm, algpseudocode, enumitem, xcolor, microtype, url, hyperref.
No external image files are required because diagrams are native TikZ.

IMPORTANT SCIENTIFIC STATUS
This is an evidence-controlled first revised manuscript. It does not invent missing dataset×entity×horizon×seed results. Stronger transfer, probabilistic, and manufacturing claims remain conditional on genuine experimental artifacts.

October 2026 authorship/format revision:
- Sole author: Adnan Haider Zaidi, Sagacious Research and Development Solutions, Canada.
- Contact: chief.scientist@sagaciousrndsolutions.com.
- University of Sunderland affiliation and the other author entries removed.
- Competing-interest, funding, and sole-author contribution metadata updated.
- TikZ page-fit support added without changing scientific manuscript content.
