In Genetic algorithms it is not easy to evaluate the confidence level in whether a GA run may have missed a complete area of good points, and whether the global optimum was found....
Search engines are among the most important applications or services on the web. Most existing successful search engines use global ranking algorithms to generate the ranking of do...
This paper presents a variant of Quantum behaved Particle Swarm Optimization (QPSO) named Q-QPSO for solving global optimization problems. The Q-QPSO algorithm is based on the cha...
Abstract We propose a new Memetic Particle Swarm Optimization scheme that incorporates local search techniques in the standard Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm, resulting in a...

Abstract. We describe decomposition during search (DDS), an integration of And/Or tree search into propagation-based constraint solvers. The presented search algorithm dynamically ...
