  • Microstrip four-port circulator using a ferrite coupled line section

    This paper describes an alternative configuration of a four-port circulator realized in a microstrip ferrite coupled line technology. The proposed fully planar device employs two three-port circulators consisting of a ferrite coupled line junction and T junction. Both circulators are connected through the same arm, hence, the problem of anti-parallel magnetization met in this type of circulators is avoided without the increase...

  • Serendipitous Recommendations Through Ontology-Based Contextual Pre-filtering

    Publication

    Context-aware Recommender Systems aim to provide users with better recommendations for their current situation. Although evaluations of recommender systems often focus on accuracy, it is not the only important aspect. Often recommendations are overspecialized, i.e. all of the same kind. To deal with this problem, other properties can be considered, such as serendipity. In this paper, we study how an ontology-based and context-aware...

  • Customized crossover in evolutionary sets of safe ship trajectories

    The paper presents selected aspects of evolutionary sets of safe ship trajectories-a method which applies evolutionary algorithms and some of the assumptions of game theory to solving ship encounter situations. For given positions and motion parameters of the ships, the method finds a near optimal set of safe trajectories of all ships involved in an encounter. The method works in real time and the solutions must be returned within...
