Autonomous trucking has progressed rapidly in recent years, transitioning from early demonstrations to OEM-integrated commercial deployments. However, fully driverless freight operations across heterogeneous climates, infrastructure…
This note further addresses the global optimization problem for max-plus linear systems considered in [Automatica 119 (2020) 109104]. Firstly, the operations between infinity elemens and real numbers involved in the formulas of solving…
Coordinating agents through hazardous environments, such as aid-delivering drones navigating conflict zones or field robots traversing deployment areas filled with obstacles, poses fundamental planning challenges. We introduce and analyze…
A cloud-based data stream management system (DSMS) handles fast data by utilizing the massively parallel processing capabilities of the underlying platform. An important property of such a DSMS is elasticity, meaning that nodes can be…
The periodic mode is analyzed together with two conventional boundary handling modes for particle swarm. By providing an infinite space that comprises periodic copies of original search space, it avoids possible disorganizing of particle…
The sea crossing from Libya to Italy is one of the world's most dangerous and politically contentious migration routes, and yet over half a million people have attempted the crossing since 2014. Leveraging data on aggregate migration flows…
Estimates of future migration patterns are of broad interest in demography. Forced migration, including refugee and asylum seekers, plays an important role in overall migration patterns, but is notoriously difficult to forecast. Focusing on…
Manoeuvring in the presence of emergency vehicles is still a major issue for vehicle autonomy systems. Most studies that address this topic are based on rule-based methods, which cannot cover all possible scenarios that can take place in…
Batch policy optimization considers leveraging existing data for policy construction before interacting with an environment. Although interest in this problem has grown significantly in recent years, its theoretical foundations remain…
Predicting forced displacement is an important undertaking of many humanitarian aid agencies, which must anticipate flows in advance in order to provide vulnerable refugees and Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) with shelter, food, and…
Evacuation planning is an important and challenging element in emergency management due to the high level of uncertainty and numerous players and agencies involved in the event. To address all the factors with conflicting objectives,…
The paper represents an algorithm for planning safe and optimal routes for transport facilities with unrestricted movement direction that travel within areas with obstacles. Paper explains the algorithm using a ship as an example of such a…
Motion planning is a key aspect of robotics. A common approach to address motion planning problems is trajectory optimization. Trajectory optimization can represent the high-level behaviors of robots through mathematical formulations.…
The significance of transportation efficiency, safety, and related services is increasing in urban vehicular networks. Within such networks, roadside units (RSUs) serve as intermediates in facilitating communication. Therefore, the…
The paper provides a framework for the assessment and optimization of the total risk of complex distributed systems. The framework takes into account the risk of each agent, which may arise from heterogeneous sources, as well as the risk…
In zone-based evacuation planning, the region to evacuate is divided into zones and each zone must be assigned a path to safety and departure times along the path. Zone-based evacuations are highly desirable in practice because they allow…
Optimization is widely used for decision making across various domains, valued for its ability to improve efficiency. However, poor implementation practices can lead to unintended consequences, particularly in socioeconomic contexts where…
Optimization of ship routing depends on several parameters, like ship and cargo characteristics, environmental factors, topography, international navigation rules, crew comfort etc. The complex nature of the problem leads to…
Regarding the concepts of urban management, digital transformation, and smart cities, various issues are presented. Currently, we like to attend to location allocation problems that can be a new part of digital transformation in urban…
Parcel sorting operations in logistics enterprises aim to achieve a high throughput of parcels through sorting centers. These sorting centers are composed of large circular conveyor belts on which incoming parcels are placed, with multiple…
