Park‐and‐multi‐loop with autonomous delivery robots in last‐mile logistics
Abstract This paper deals with the park‐and‐multi‐loop routing problem, in the context of last‐mile logistics, in which a fleet of traditional vehicles equipped with several autonomous delivery robots leaves from a depot to service a set of customer requests.

Efficient exact formulations for the flexible job shop scheduling with flexible maintenance
Abstract In modern manufacturing systems, integrating preventive maintenance into production scheduling is essential to ensure operational efficiency and equipment reliability. This paper addresses the flexible job shop scheduling problem under machine unavailability constraints caused by non‐fixed maintenance tasks.

Handling continuous attributes in ant colony classification algorithms [PDF]
Most real-world classification problems involve continuous (real-valued) attributes, as well as, nominal (discrete) attributes. The majority of Ant Colony Optimisation (ACO) classification algorithms have the limitation of only being able to cope with ...

The Keystone‐Pathogen Hypothesis Updated: The Role of Porphyromonas gingivalis in Periodontitis
Porphyromonas gingivalis orchestrates a coordinated manipulation of immune and inflammatory responses in periodontal tissues which leads to the generation of a dysbiotic, subgingival biofilm community, and progression of periodontitis. The type 9 secretion system, lipid A modification, and the formation of outer membrane vesicles are important ...

cAnt-Miner: an ant colony classification algorithm to cope with continuous attributes [PDF]
This paper presents an extension to Ant-Miner, named cAnt-Miner (Ant-Miner coping with continuous attributes), which incorporates an entropy-based discretization method in order to cope with continuous attributes during the rule construction process.

Abstract The application of automated ground vehicles (AGVs) is well‐established in closed environments such as port terminals, while their operation in open areas remains challenging. In this work, we set out to overcome this limitation by introducing platooning as a transfer mode in heterogeneous vehicle networks.

Automatic MGA trajectory planning with a modified ant colony optimization algorithm [PDF]
This paper assesses the problem of designing multiple gravity assist (MGA) trajectories, including the sequence of planetary encounters. The problem is treated as planning and scheduling of events, such that the original mixed combinatorial-continuous ...
