Clustering methods can be either data-driven or need-driven. Data-driven methods intend to discover the true structure of the underlying data while need-driven methods aims at org...
3D scanners developed over the past several decades have facilitated the reconstruction of complicated engineering parts. Typically the boundary representation of a part is recons...
The self-organising map (SOM) has been successfully employed as a nonparametric method for dimensionality reduction and data visualisation. However, for visualisation the SOM requ...
Agent-based simulation provides a methodology to investigate complex systems behavior, such as supply chains, while incorporating many empirical elements relative to both systems ...
Abstract. Current trends in software development show a move towards supporting autonomous components (agents). The accurate timing of interactions between such components is growi...
