Buchanan and the Social Contract: Coordination Failures and the Atrophy of Property Rights

open access: yesSouthern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT James Buchanan advocated that societies should be based on a social contract. He rejected anarchy, seeing it as a “Hobbesian jungle” that calls for government intervention to maintain social order. He also opposed theories of spontaneous order. These views led to debates about the compatibility of Buchanan's works with classical liberalism and

Distributed AutoML framework for multi‐objective optimization of concrete crack segmentation models

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Monitoring cracks in concrete surfaces is essential for structural safety. While machine vision techniques have received significant interest in this domain, selecting optimal models and tuning hyperparameters remain challenging. This paper proposes a Distributed Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) framework for efficiently designing and ...

Quantifying Structural Complexity, Effort, and Performance: An Early Experiment Using Network Design Tasks

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Structural Complexity is perceived as driving cost in system development, yet managing it effectively requires empirical understanding. This study investigates human decision‐making using a toy transportation‐style network design task, focusing on how Structural Complexity, Effort, and Performance interact. Seventy‐four participants (primarily

Combining kernelised autoencoding and centroid prediction for dynamic multi‐objective optimisation

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Evolutionary algorithms face significant challenges when dealing with dynamic multi‐objective optimisation because Pareto optimal solutions and/or Pareto optimal fronts change. The authors propose a unified paradigm, which combines the kernelised autoncoding evolutionary search and the centroid‐based prediction (denoted by KAEP), for solving ...

DGA and Pareto Elitism : Improving Pareto Optimization

open access: yes, 1997
Previous works have shown the efficiency of a new approach for the Genetic Algorithms, the Dual Genetic Algorithms, in the multiobjective optimization context. Dual Genetic Algorithms make use of a meta level to enhance the expressiveness of schemata, entities implicitly handle by Genetic Algorithms.

MOEA/D‐based multi‐row facility layout optimisation method with discontinuity perceiving of the Pareto front

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract In a multi‐row facility layout problem (MRFLP), facilities are arranged in more than one row under the limited layout area. Considering different layout factors, various extensions of MRFLP have been modelled. However, the orientation of input/output (I/O) point in a facility, as a key factor that plays a direct impact on flow cost, is seldom ...
