Post-quantum cryptography (PQC) is moving from evaluation to deployment as NIST finalizes standards for ML-KEM, ML-DSA, and SLH-DSA. This survey maps the space from foundations to practice. We first develop a taxonomy across lattice-, code-, hash-, multivariate-, isogeny-, and MPC-in-the-Head families, summarizing security assumptions, cryptanalysis, and standardization status. We then compare performance and communication costs using representative, implementation-grounded measurements, and review hardware acceleration (AVX2, FPGA/ASIC) and implementation security with a focus on side-channel resistance. Building upward, we examine protocol integration (TLS, DNSSEC), PKI and certificate hygiene, and deployment in constrained and high-assurance environments (IoT, cloud, finance, blockchain). We also discuss complementarity with quantum technologies (QKD, QRNGs) and the limits of near-term quantum computing. Throughout, we emphasize crypto-agility, hybrid migration, and evidence-based guidance for operators. We conclude with open problems spanning parameter agility, leakage-resilient implementations, and domain-specific rollout playbooks. This survey aims to be a practical reference for researchers and practitioners planning quantum-safe systems, bridging standards, engineering, and operations.

Child bicyclists (14 years and younger) are among the most vulnerable road users, often experiencing severe injuries or fatalities in crashes. This study analyzed 2,394 child bicyclist crashes in Texas from 2017 to 2022 using two deep tabular learning models (ARM-Net and MambaNet). To address the issue of data imbalance, the SMOTEENN technique was applied, resulting in balanced datasets that facilitated accurate crash severity predictions across three categories: Fatal/Severe (KA), Moderate/Minor (BC), and No Injury (O). The findings revealed that MambaNet outperformed ARM-Net, achieving higher precision, recall, F1-scores, and accuracy, particularly in the KA and O categories. Both models highlighted challenges in distinguishing BC crashes due to overlapping characteristics. These insights underscored the value of advanced tabular deep learning methods and balanced datasets in understanding crash severity. While limitations such as reliance on categorical data exist, future research could explore continuous variables and real-time behavioral data to enhance predictive modeling and crash mitigation strategies.

This study presents a deep tabular learning framework for predicting crash severity in electric vehicle (EV) collisions using real-world crash data from Texas (2017-2023). After filtering for electric-only vehicles, 23,301 EV-involved crash records were analyzed. Feature importance techniques using XGBoost and Random Forest identified intersection relation, first harmful event, person age, crash speed limit, and day of week as the top predictors, along with advanced safety features like automatic emergency braking. To address class imbalance, Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique and Edited Nearest Neighbors (SMOTEENN) resampling was applied. Three state-of-the-art deep tabular models, TabPFN, MambaNet, and MambaAttention, were benchmarked for severity prediction. While TabPFN demonstrated strong generalization, MambaAttention achieved superior performance in classifying severe injury cases due to its attention-based feature reweighting. The findings highlight the potential of deep tabular architectures for improving crash severity prediction and enabling data-driven safety interventions in EV crash contexts.
