In February 2015, a few days before the Academy Awards, two groups of seven people were asked to predict who the winners would be. The first group—film critics gathered together by The New York ...

An international research team has developed a hybrid maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technique for PV systems that operate under partial shading or rapidly changing atmospheric parameters. The ...

In mapping for computer music and interactive media, flocking algorithms represent a special case, offering dynamic, self-organized domain translations. In this article we attempt a classification of ...

Every year, plant diseases caused by bacteria, viruses, and fungi contribute to major economic losses. The prompt detection of these diseases is necessary to curb their spread and mitigate ...

What algorithms should an air defense system work with? Particle swarm algorithms if there are ten targets to be hit. If there are more than ten targets, greedy algorithms work best. What algorithms ...

Swarms of drones flying in terrifyingly perfect formation could be one step closer, thanks to a control algorithm being developed at MIT. The complexities involved in controlling teams of moving ...

Swarm drones are groups of over one unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that fly in a coordinated, autonomous formation. Swarm drones communicate with one another, share real-time information, and ...

The challenge of resource allocation for UAV swarms in dynamic and uncertain electromagnetic environments has been investigated for years. In a recent breakthrough published in the Chinese Journal of ...
