During the last years, speed-up techniques for DIJKSTRA’s algorithm have been developed that make the computation of shortest paths a matter of microseconds even on huge road networks. The most sophisticated methods enhance the graph by inserting shortcuts, i.e. additional edges, that represent shortest paths in the graph. Until now, all existing shortcut-insertion strategies are heuristics and...

Although the emergence of communication has been the topic of various Artificial Life experiments, the study of underlying representational processes finds little discussion. We have previously differentiated between symbolic and indexical interpretation and proposed that symbolic interpretation may act as a shortcut to cognitive traits already acquired. Here we evaluate conditions of this acqu...

We present an approach to solving the radiative transport equation (RTE) for layered media in the spatial frequency domain (SFD) using Monte Carlo (MC) simulations. This is done by obtaining a complex photon weight from analysis of the Fourier transform of the RTE. We also develop a modified shortcut method that enables a single MC simulation to efficiently provide RTE solutions in the SFD for ...
