During a disaster, emergency response operations can benefit from the establishment of a wireless ad hoc network. We propose the use of autonomous robots that move inside a disas...
In this work, our objective is to heuristically discover a simplified form of functional dependencies between variables called weak dependencies. Once discovered, these relations...
This paper proposes a novel recombination scheme for evolutionary algorithms, which can guide the new population generation towards the maximum increase of the objective function....
