Hyper-heuristics can be thought of as “heuristics to choose heuristics”. They are concerned with adaptively finding solution methods, rather than directly producing a solutio...
With the current progress in robot technology and related areas, sophisticated moving and sensing capabilities are at hand to design robots capable of solving seemingly complex tas...
This paper develops rare event simulation methods for the estimation of portfolio credit risk -- the risk of losses to a portfolio resulting from defaults of assets in the portfol...
We present an efficient approach to self-collision detection suitable for complex articulated robots such as humanoids. Preventing self-collisions is vital for the safe operation ...
