Deterministic optimization approaches have been well developed and widely used in the process industry to accomplish off-line and on-line process optimization. The challenging tas...
Premature convergence is a major problem of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO).Although many strategies have been proposed, there is still some work needed to do in high-dimensional...
Coordinating the motion of multiple mobile robots is one of the fundamental problems in robotics. The predominant algorithms for coordinating teams of robots are decoupled and pri...
—In this paper, we present fast and efficient methods for the lossy encoding of object boundaries that are given as eight-connect chain codes. We approximate the boundary by a p...
— The efficient diagnosis of hardware and software faults in parallel and distributed systems remains a challenge in today’s most prolific decentralized environments. System-...
