International Journal of Approximate Reasoning Authors M. Suciu, R. Lung Abstract Game theory models strategic interactions among agents, focusing on situations of conflict and offering various solution concepts, known as equilibria. Bayesian games consider situations in which players have private types and act and receive payoffs based on those types. The problem of computing…
Annual Conference on Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Authors Yingkai Xu, Anikó Kopacz, Camelia Chira Abstract The widespread adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) in urban logistics has led to the Electric Vehicle Routing Problem (EVRP) emerging as a prominent topic in combinatorial optimization research. To improve the efficiency of urban logistics distribution and minimize operational…
We investigate the problem of breast cancer screening optimization, using various techniques applicable in domains where the data format is not defined in advance. The aim is to minimize the cost related to the screening of patients while maximizing the beneficial effect of the process regarding some key breast cancer indices. Our model can…
In the past few years, path planning and scheduling became a high-impact research topic due to their real-world applications such as transportation, manufacturing and robotics. This paper focuses on the Multi-robot Path Planning (MPP) problem, which consists of planning the route for a set of robots in a given static environment. The main goal…
Electric vehicles (EVs) are increasingly utilized in logistics and distribution to expedite achieving carbon peaking and neutrality goals, drawing considerable attention to the Electric Vehicle Routing Problem (EVRP). This study investigates the Multi-Depot Half-Open Time-Dependent Electric Vehicle Routing Problem (MDHOTDEVRP) and aims to improve coordination and distribution efficiency among logistics depots. This problem involves…
Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among women worldwide, with early detection playing an essential role in improving survival rates. Detection of breast abnormalities at an early stage is best performed using mammography. This paper presents a new approach integrating advanced preprocessing techniques based on Cellular Automaton. It was applied on the…
This paper presents a method for assessing two cracks in simply supported beams by identifying their locations and severities (depths). Our method is based on applying the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm with the measured natural frequencies for several bending vibration modes of an intact and cracked beam. We are using calculated relative frequency…
The latest improvements regarding the online world have come with great benefits, but, as well as dangerous drawbacks (i.e., web-malware). This article proposes to investigate the reliability and accuracy of a novel web-malware detection method by using images and deep learning. The web links are transformed into colored and grayscale images and then a…
Network motifs in complex networks signify critical patterns of connections essential for deciphering system dynamics. Identifying and understanding these rare and elusive motifs is crucial for analyzing complex network behaviors. Our previous research has established a significant positive correlation between the occurrence of motifs and two network properties at the micro level, namely Assortativity…
Web technology advances faster than humans can adapt to it and develop the proper online skills. Most users are not experienced enough to have a good online knowledge on how to protect their data. Thus, many people can become vulnerable to threats. The most common online attacks are through malicious web links, which can…
