—This paper presents a new metamodel-assisted metaheuristic algorithm for optimisation problems involving computationally expensive simulations. The algorithm, called Global Prob...
Abstract. In constraint programming there are often many choices regarding the propagation method to be used on the constraints of a problem. However, simple constraint solvers usu...
Abstract. Image-Based Lighting (IBL) has become a very popular approach in computer graphics. In essence IBL is based on capturing the illumination conditions in a scene in an omni...
We define a probe to be a single action sequence computed greedily from a given state that either terminates in the goal or fails. We show that by designing these probes carefull...
In this paper, the global optimization problem with an objective function that is multiextremal that satisfies the Lipschitz condition over a hypercube is considered. An algorithm...
