A Lin-Kernighan Heuristic for Single Row Facility Layout [PDF]

open access: yes
The single row facility layout problem (SRFLP) is the problem of arranging facilities with given lengths on a line, while minimizing the weighted sum of the distances between all pairs of facilities. The problem is known to be NP-hard.

Mutual Adaptation and Influence: Review of Latent Dynamics Models in Human–Robot Interaction

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robots are becoming better teammates by learning hidden patterns in how people act. This review covers how state‐of‐the‐art approaches leverage these patterns to help robots not only react but also anticipate and guide cooperation. Here, we synthesize a unifying framework for these approaches, classify and review existing works, and highlight key ...
