—Delay Tolerant Networks (DTN) are networks of self-organizing wireless nodes, where end-to-end connectivity is intermittent. In these networks, forwarding decisions are generall...
Markov decision processes (MDPs) with discrete and continuous state and action components can be solved efficiently by hybrid approximate linear programming (HALP). The main idea ...
— In this paper, we present a novel approach to partitioning pattern spaces using a multiobjective genetic algorithm for identifying (near-)optimal subspaces for hierarchical lea...
