Building upon the interactive inversion method introduced by Ashburn and Bonabeau (2004), we show how to dramatically improve the results by exploiting modularity and by letting t...
This paper proposes an improved particle swarm optimizer using the notion of species to determine its neighbourhood best values, for solving multimodal optimization problems. In th...
This paper presents a study of different models for the growth curves and takeover time in a distributed EA (dEA). The calculation of the takeover time and the dynamical growth cu...
Software systems are used regularly in safety-relevant applications. Therefore, the occurrence of critical defects may not only cause costly recalls but may also endanger human liv...
In this paper, we describe a cooperative transportation to a target position with two humanoid robots and introduce a machine learning approach to solving the problem. The difficul...
