Abstract. We consider bicriteria optimization problems and investigate the relationship between two standard approaches to solving them: (i) computing the Pareto curve and (ii) the...
An open problem in Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) is the development of algorithms which scale with the size of the environment. A few promising methods exploit the ...
The fare planning problem for public transport is to design a system of fares that maximize the revenue. We introduce a nonlinear optimization model to approach this problem. It i...
