We study the combinatorial optimization task of choosing the smoothest map from a given family of maps, which is motivated from motor control unit calibration. The problem is of a ...
Abstract. Methods of adaptive constraint satisfaction have recently become of interest to overcome the limitations imposed on “black-box” search algorithms by the no free lunch...
The global search properties of heuristic search algorithms are not well understood. In this paper, we introduce a new metric, mobility, that quantifies the dispersion of local o...

Surrogate-Assisted Memetic Algorithm(SAMA) is a hybrid evolutionary algorithm, particularly a memetic algorithm that employs surrogate models in the optimization search. Since mos...

In this paper we describe a stochastic local search (SLS) procedure for finding satisfying models of satisfiable propositional formulae. This new algorithm, gNovelty+ , draws on th...
