We describe ongoing research to support the construction of terminologies with Description Logics. For the explanation of subsumption we search for particular concepts because of t...
The main contribution of this paper is the definition of the preference description language ¡¢ . This language allows us to combine qualitative and quantitative, penalty bas...
Abstract. This paper presents a new approach to optimize gait parameter sets using evolutionary algorithms. It separates the crossover-step of the evolutionary algorithm into an in...
