We present a competitive strategy for walking into the kernel of an initially unknown star-shaped polygon. From an arbitrary start point, s, within the polygon, our strategy find...
Heuristic search for the global minimum is studied. This paper is focused on the adaptation of control parameters in differential evolution (DE) and in controlled random search (...
