Reachability and Minimal Times for State Constrained Nonlinear Problems without Any Controllability Assumption
We consider a target problem for a nonlinear system under state constraints. We give a new continuous level-set approach for characterizing the optimal times and the backward-reach...

Dynamic buffer management using optimal control of hybrid systems
This paper studies a general dynamic buffer management problem with one buffer inserted between two interacting components. The component to be controlled is assumed to have multi...

Non-wrapping order crossover: an order preserving crossover operator that respects absolute position
In this paper, we introduce a new crossover operator for the permutation representation of a GA. This new operator-Non-Wrapping Order Crossover (NWOX)--is a variation of the well-...

Genetic algorithms for action set selection across domains: a demonstration
Action set selection in Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) is an area of research that has received little attention. On the other hand, the set of actions available to an MDP agent...
