Optimized Path-Planning in Continuous Spaces for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Using Meta-Heuristics
IEEE Access, 2020 This work presents a novel path-planning approach for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in continuous 3D environments. This proposal aims to minimize the path length while avoiding collisions through the suitable adjusting of control points (the points ...

The Structure of Informal Learning in the Workplace—An Experience Sampling Approach
Human Resource Development Quarterly, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper complements retrospective approaches to researching informal learning in the workplace with experience sampling. Since (conscious) informal learning is becoming increasingly important for successfully keeping pace with rapid changes in working environments, a clear understanding of the construct and its precise measurement are ...

EHHM: Electrical Harmony Based Hybrid Meta-Heuristic for Feature Selection
IEEE Access, 2020 Selecting the most relevant features from a high dimensional dataset is always a challenging task. In this regard, the feature selection (FS) method acts as a solution to this problem mainly in the domain of data mining and machine learning.

Human Resource Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The aging workforce demands evidence‐based human resource practices that lengthen working lives. Building on the Conservation of Resources theory (Hobfoll 1989), we investigate which organizational practices are indispensable for expanding older workers' occupational future time perspective (OFTP)—people's perceived opportunities and remaining

Meta-Heuristic Development in Combinatorial Optimization
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2019 Abstract The quadratic assigment problem is a combinatorial problem of deciding the placement of facilities in specified locations in such a way as to minimize a nonconvex objective function expressed in terms of distance between location and flows between facilities.

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.Our umbrella synthesis found strong, often equivalent, associations between child maltreatment and all examined mental health difficulties. Different types of maltreatment appear to have comparably negative effects on mental health. If replicated, these findings may cause us to reconsider conventional wisdom that suggests some forms of CM are less ...

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.Abstract Background Adolescence is marked by increased vulnerability to sleep disturbances and mood disorders. Understanding how day‐to‐day changes in sleep and mood are linked within the same individual is crucial for clarifying sleep's role in emerging internalizing disorders. However, the extent to which an adolescent's fluctuations in sleep predict

Global Bacteria Optimization Meta-Heuristic
, 2011 A large number of real-life optimization problems in economics and business are complex and difficult to solve. Hence, using approximate algorithms is a very good alternative to solve this class of problems. Meta-heuristics solution procedures represent general approximate algorithms applicable to a large variety of optimization problems.
