— We propose an algorithm that is based on the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) metaheuristic for producing harmonized melodies. The algorithm works in two stages. In the first sta...
— Online service provision is becoming increasingly decentralized as system designers pursue the benefits gained from utilizing nodes at the periphery of the network. However, d...
— This study introduces the multi-criteria approach to the optimization of dynamic molecular alignment by shaped femtosecond laser pulses, which has been considered so far only a...
—As the application and complexity of microelectromechanical (MEMS) devices increases, there is a corresponding need for automated design and optimization tools to augment engine...

— We present an ant-based algorithm for spatially sorting objects into an annular structure. The model is minimal, as it requires only stochastic ant behaviour coupled with a phe...
Abstract— In spite of large amount of research work in multiobjective evolutionary algorithms, most have evaluated their algorithms on problems with only two to four objectives. ...
— This paper presents a simple and generic indicator-based multi-objective local search. This algorithm is a direct extension of the IBEA algorithm, an indicatorbased evolutionar...
— We present an ant model that solves a discrete foraging problem. We describe simulations and provide a complete convergence analysis: we show that the ant population computes t...
— Over the past 50 years, much attention has been given to the Prisoner’s Dilemma as a metaphor for problems surrounding the evolution and maintenance of cooperative and altrui...
