Evolutionary approach to solving multi-ship encounter situations
PublicationW artykule wprowadzono nowe podejście do rozwiązywania sytuacji spotkań wielu statków poprzez połączenie założeń teorii gier z programowaniem ewolucyjnym. Spotkanie wielu statków jest zamodelowane jako gra rozgrywana przez ''myślących graczy'' - statki o różnych, potencjalnie zmiennych strategiach. Rozwiązanie - zbiór kooperujących (niekolidujących) trajektorii jest znajdowane za pomocą algorytmu ewolucyjnego.
