We consider the problem of designing error correcting codes (ECC), a hard combinatorial optimization problem of relevance in the field of telecommunications. This problem is tackl...
This paper describes and analyzes the aggregation pheromone system (APS) algorithm, which extends ant colony optimization (ACO) to continuous domains. APS uses the collective behav...
We consider a scenario where stops are to be placed along an already existing public transportation network in order to improve its attractiveness for the customers. The core probl...
Traditional parallel programming styles have many problems which hinder the development of parallel applications. The message passing style can be too complex for many programmers...
This article presents a new adaptive framework for locally parallel texture modeling. Oscillating patterns are modeled with functionals that constrain the local Fourier decompositi...
