We apply gene expression programing to evolve a player for a real-time strategy (RTS) video game. The paper describes the game, evolutionary encoding of strategies and the technical implementation of experimental framework. In the experimental part, we com ...
This paper investigates the morphologic impacts of the widening of tributaries in confluence zones by means of systematic hydraulic tests performed in a confluent laboratory flume. The confluent channels are connected with an angle of 90° and the main chan ...
The dynamics of MEMS 3D fluidic self-assembly (FSA) was modeled using interactive software agents, i.e. by agent-based modeling (ABM). ABM enables realistic simulations of 3D FSA dynamics taking into account spatial parameters - hard to include in analytic ...
This thesis is intended to contribute to the field of biomechanics of growth and remodeling of arteries. The work focuses particularly on growth and remodeling caused by sustained hypertension, increased blood flow, and ageing. A structure-based constituti ...
The effects of internal dynamics in diffusion-driven encounters between macro-molecules represent a problem of broad relevance in molecular biology. In this view, we investigate a typical antigen-antibody reaction chain, based on a coarse-grained mechanica ...
We studied a two-person game regarding deforestation in human–environment relationships. Each landowner manages a single land parcel where the state of land-use is forested, agricultural, or abandoned. The landowner has two strategies available: forest con ...
We present an operational framework for the calibration of demand models for dynamic traffic simulations. Our focus is on disaggregate simulators that represent every traveler individually. We calibrate, at a likewise individual level, arbitrary choice dim ...
ABSTRACT. An information-geometric approach for document similarities in the framework of “Probabilistic Latent Semantic Indexing” was first proposed by T. Hofmann (2000) and later extended (“revisited”) by Nyffenegger et al. (2006). This paper presents an ...
We address the problem of the photoluminescence of a quantum (QD) dot in a nanocavity, with focus on the case of nonzero detuning. In this regime, experiments have shown that strong emission from the cavity-like peak is still present for dot-cavity detunin ...
Distributed video coding performances strongly depend on the side information quality, built at the decoder. In multi-view schemes, correlations in both time and view directions are exploited, obtaining in general two estimations that need to be merged. Th ...
