Robustness and Adaptiveness Analysis of Future Fleets
Slawomir Wesolkowski, Michael Mazurek, James M. Whitacre +2
Making decisions about the structure of a future military fleet is a challenging task. Several issues need to be considered such as the existence of multiple competing objectives a…
Network Topology and Time Criticality Effects in the Modularised Fleet Mix Problem
James M. Whitacre, Axel Bender, Stephen Baker +3
In this paper, we explore the interplay between network topology and time criticality in a military logistics system. A general goal of this work (and previous work) is to evaluate…
Credit Assignment in Adaptive Evolutionary Algorithms
James M. Whitacre, Tuan Q. Pham, Ruhul A. Sarker
In this paper, a new method for assigning credit to search operators is presented. Starting with the principle of optimizing search bias, search operators are selected based on an…
Computational Scenario-based Capability Planning
Hussein Abbass, Axel Bender, Helen Dam +3
Scenarios are pen-pictures of plausible futures, used for strategic planning. The aim of this investigation is to expand the horizon of scenario-based planning through computationa…
The Self-Organization of Interaction Networks for Nature-Inspired Optimization
James M. Whitacre, Ruhul A. Sarker, Q. Tuan Pham
Over the last decade, significant progress has been made in understanding complex biological systems, however there have been few attempts at incorporating this knowledge into natu…
Evidence of coevolution in multi-objective evolutionary algorithms
James M Whitacre
This paper demonstrates that simple yet important characteristics of coevolution can occur in evolutionary algorithms when only a few conditions are met. We find that interaction-b…
