We consider the rooted orienteering problem: Given a set P of n points in the plane, a starting point r P, and a length constraint B, one needs to find a path starting from r tha...
In this paper, we propose a uniaxial perfectly matched layer (PML) method for solving the time-harmonic scattering problems in two-layered media. The exterior region of the scatter...
— Addressing dynamic optimization problems has attracted a growing interest from the evolutionary algorithm community in recent years due to its importance in the applications of...
In this paper, we study the following disc covering problem: Given a set of discs of various radii on the plane, find a subset of discs to maximize the area covered by exactly on...
