DPOP is an algorithm for distributed constraint optimization which has, as main drawback, the exponential size of some of its messages. Recently, some algorithms for distributed c...
In this paper we propose the construction of a visual content layer which describes the visual appearance of geographic locations in a city. We captured, by means of a Mobile Mappi...
This paper presents a variant of Quantum behaved Particle Swarm Optimization (QPSO) named Q-QPSO for solving global optimization problems. The Q-QPSO algorithm is based on the cha...
