Learning and optimization using the clonal selection principle
The clonal selection principle is used to explain the basic features of an adaptive immune response to an antigenic stimulus. It establishes the idea that only those cells that rec...

Beyond local optimality: An improved approach to hybrid model learning
Abstract-- Local convergence is a limitation of many optimization approaches for multimodal functions. For hybrid model learning, this can mean a compromise in accuracy. We develop...

Simple ant routing algorithm strategies for a (Multipurpose) MANET model
A Mobile Ad-hoc Network has limited and scarce resources and thus routing protocols in such environments must be kept as simple as possible. The Simple Ant Routing Algorithm (SARA...

An optimal polygonal boundary encoding scheme in the rate distortion sense
—In this paper, we present fast and efficient methods for the lossy encoding of object boundaries that are given as eight-connect chain codes. We approximate the boundary by a p...
