In this paper we explore the mobility of a mobile sink in a wireless sensor network (WSN) to prolong the network lifetime. Since the mechanical movement of mobile sink is driven by...
Abstract--The Distributed Stochastic Algorithm (DSA), Distributed Breakout Algorithm (DBA), and variations such as Distributed Simulated Annealing (DSAN), MGM-1, and DisPeL, are di...
The covariance matrix adaptation evolution strategy (CMAES) has proven to be a powerful method for reinforcement learning (RL). Recently, the CMA-ES has been augmented with an ada...
