On Efficiently Solving the Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows Using the Bat Algorithm with Random Reinsertion Operators
Authors: Javier Del Ser,Javier Del Ser,Pedro Lopez-Garcia,Eneko Osaba,Xin-She Yang,Roberto Carballedo,Iztok Fister
An evolutionary and discrete variant of the Bat Algorithm (EDBA) is proposed for solving the Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows, or VRPTW. The EDBA developed not only presents an improved movement strategy, but it also combines with diverse heuristic operators to deal with this type of…

Authors: Victor M. Calo,Victor M. Calo,Judit Muñoz-Matute,Elisabete Alberdi,David Pardo,David Pardo,David Pardo
Goal-oriented adaptive algorithms produce optimal grids to solve challenging engineering problems. Recently, a novel error representation using (unconventional) pseudo-dual problems for goal-oriented adaptivity in the context of frequency-domain wave-propagation problems has been developed. In this…

Authors: L.A. Sromovsky,J. Guarro,J. Sussenbach,Nicholas M. Law,Ricardo Hueso,Agustín Sánchez-Lavega,Christoph Baranec,K. de Kleer,S. Luszcz-Cook,D. Gavel,A. Wesley,Jose Félix Rojas,P. Gorczynski,E. Victor Garcia,S.M. Ammons,Michael H. Wong,Heidi Hammel,I.…
Since 2013, observations of Neptune with small telescopes (28-50 cm) have resulted in several detections of long-lived bright atmospheric features that have also been observed by large telescopes such as Keck II or Hubble. The combination of both types of images allows the study of the long-term…

The size, shape, density and ring of the dwarf planet Haumea from a stellar occultation
Authors: S. Kalkan,Santiago Pérez-Hoyos,Yavuz Güney,B. Gaehrken,Toni Santana-Ros,Victor Ali-Lagoa,Martina Maestripieri,Kosmas Gazeas,J. C. Guirado,Nicolás Morales,E. Meza,W. Beisker,Alvaro Alvarez-Candal,Ricardo Hueso,Afşar Kabaş,J. Lecacheux,Theodor Pribulla,A.…
Among the four known transneptunian dwarf planets, Haumea is an exotic, very elongated, and fast rotating body. In contrast to the other dwarf planets, its size, shape, albedo, and density are not well constrained. Here we report results of a multi-chord stellar occultation, observed on 2017…

Removing Piston-driven Mechanical Chest Compression Artefacts from the ECG
Authors: Unai Irusta,Iraia Isasi,Erik Alonso,Jo Kramer-Johansen,Unai Ayala,Elisabete Aramendi,Trygve Eftestøl
Piston-driven mechanical chest compression (CC) devices induce a quasi-periodic artefact in the ECG, making rhythm diagnosis unreliable. Data from 230 out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients were collected in which CCs were delivered using the piston driven LUCAS-2 device. Underlying rhythms…

Goal‐oriented adaptivity using unconventional error representations for the multidimensional Helmholtz equation
Authors: Ignacio Muga,Serge Prudhomme,David Pardo,David Pardo,David Pardo,Vincent Darrigrand,Vincent Darrigrand,Albert Romkes,Ángel Rodríguez-Rozas,Ángel Rodríguez-Rozas
SummaryIn goal‐oriented adaptivity, the error in the quantity of interest is represented using the error functions of the direct and adjoint problems. This error representation is subsequently bounded above by element‐wise error indicators that are used to drive optimal refinements. In this work,…

Layout Optimisation of Wave Energy Converter Arrays
Authors: Pau Ruiz,Vincenzo Nava,Mathew Topper,Pablo Minguela,Francesco Ferri,Jens Kofoed
This paper proposes an optimisation strategy for the layout design of wave energy converter (WEC) arrays. Optimal layouts are sought so as to maximise the absorbed power given a minimum q-factor, the minimum distance between WECs, and an area of deployment. To guarantee an efficient optimisation, a…

Teaching stellar interferometry with polymer optical fibers
Authors: Joseba Zubia,Agustín Sánchez-Lavega,Ricardo Hueso,María Asunción Illarramendi,Laura Arregui
In this manuscript we show the design of a simple experiment that reproduces the operation of the Michelson stellar interferometer by using step-index polymer optical fibers. The emission of stellar sources, single or binary stars, has been simulated by the laser light emerging from the output…

Adaptive Splitting Integrators for Enhancing Sampling Efficiency of Modified Hamiltonian Monte Carlo Methods in Molecular Simulation
Authors: Elena Akhmatskaya,Mario Fernández-Pendás,Tijana Radivojević,J. M. Sanz-Serna
The modified Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (MHMC) methods, i.e., importance sampling methods that use modified Hamiltonians within a Hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) framework, often outperform in sampling efficiency standard techniques such as molecular dynamics (MD) and HMC. The performance of MHMC may be…

Are we generating instances uniformly at random?
Authors: Alexander Mendiburu,Josu Ceberio,Jose A. Lozano
In evolutionary computation, it is common practice to use sets of instances as test-beds for evaluating and comparing the performance of new optimisation algorithms. In some cases, real-world instances are available, and, thus, they are used to constitute the experimental benchmark. Unfortunately,…
