In this paper, we proposed Fittest Individual Refinement (FIR), a crossover based local search method for Differential Evolution (DE). The FIR scheme accelerates DE by enhancing...
This paper introduces a modified version of the well known global optimization technique named line search method. The modifications refer to the way in which the direction and th...
In the past, Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) have become a standard for solving problems of sequential decision under uncertainty. The usual request in this framework is the compu...
Similarity search usually encounters a serious problem in the high dimensional space, known as the “curse of dimensionality”. In order to speed up the retrieval efficiency, p...
