    In the context of the existing buildings, along the recent years the concept of maintenance has changed from corrective maintenance to preventive maintenance, which is based in part on periodic inspections. There is ample ...
  • An agile simheuristic for the stochastic team task assignment and orienteering problem: applications to unmanned aerial vehicles 

    Panadero, Javier; Juan Pérez, Ángel Alejandro; Grifoll Colls, Manel; Dehghanimohamamdabadi, Mohammad; Freixes, Alfons; Serrat Piè, Carles (2020)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    Efficient coordination of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) requires the solving of challenging operational problems. One of them is the integrated team task assignment and orienteering problem (TAOP). The TAOP can be seen ...
  • Reversible-Jump MCMC for Likelihood-Based Finite Mixture Models for Ordinal Data 

    Fernández Martínez, Daniel (American Statistical Association, 2016)
    Conference report
    Restricted access - publisher's policy
    Many of the methods which deal with the reduction of dimensionality in matrices of data are based on mathematical techniques such as distance-based algorithms or matrix decomposition and eigen values. In general, it is not ...
