A Utile Function Optimizer
Abstract— We recast the problem of unconstrained continuous evolutionary optimization as inference in a fixed graphical model. This approach allows us to address several pervasi...

Utilizing Genetic Algorithms to Optimize Membership Functions for Fuzzy Weighted Association Rules Mining
It is not an easy task to know a priori the most appropriate fuzzy sets that cover the domains of quantitative attributes for fuzzy association rules mining. In general, it is unre...

Functional Value Iteration for Decision-Theoretic Planning with General Utility Functions
We study how to find plans that maximize the expected total utility for a given MDP, a planning objective that is important for decision making in high-stakes domains. The optimal...

Adaptive Time-Critical Resource Management Using Time/Utility Functions: Past, Present, and Future
Time/utility function time constraints (or TUFs) and utility accrual (UA) scheduling optimality criteria, constitute, arguably, the most effective and broadest approach for adapti...

Coalition Structure Generation Utilizing Compact Characteristic Function Representations
This paper presents a new way of formalizing the Coalition Structure Generation problem (CSG), so that we can apply constraint optimization techniques to it. Forming effective coal...
