— Consider a coverage problem for a team of agents in the plane: target points appear sporadically over time in a bounded environment and must be visited by one of the agents. It...
In this paper, we consider Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) with error states. Error states are those states entering which is undesirable or dangerous. We define the risk with re...
Abstract—This paper studies a constrained optical signal-tonoise ratio (OSNR) optimization problem in optical networks from the perspective of system performance. A system optimi...
Memetic algorithms have become to gain increasingly important for solving large scale combinatorial optimization problems. Typically, the extent of the application of local search...
Distributed problem solving by a multiagent system represents a promising approach to solving complex computational problems. However, many multiagent systems require certain degr...
