Abstract. The Double Cross calculus has been proposed for the purpose of navigation based on qualitative information about spatial configurations. Up until now, however, no result...
Encouraging exploration, typically by preserving the diversity within the population, is one of the most common method to improve the behavior of evolutionary algorithms with dece...
The paper describes a general glance to the use of element exchange techniques for optimization over permutations. A multi-level description of problems is proposed which is a fund...
Exponential algorithms, i.e. algorithms of complexity O(cn ) for some c > 1, seem to be unavoidable in the case of NP-complete problems (unless P=NP), especially if the problem ...
Abstract. Taxonomies in the area of Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) classify problems according to the underlying principles and assumptions of the agents’ abilities, rationality and i...
