Besides search, complete inference methods can also be used to solve soft constraint problems. Their main drawback is the high spatial complexity. To improve its practical usage, w...
Deciding the appropriate population size and number of islands for distributed island-model genetic algorithms is often critical to the algorithm’s success. This paper outlines ...
Coevolution can be used to adaptively choose the tests used for evaluating candidate solutions. A long-standing question is how this dynamic setup may be organized to yield reliab...
Abstract. A snap-stabilizing protocol, starting from any arbitrary initial configuration, always behaves according to its specification. In [4], we presented the first snap-stab...
Collaborative filtering and content-based filtering are two types of information filtering techniques. Combining these two techniques can improve the recommendation effectiveness....
