— We describe the development and testing of a metaheuristic procedure, based on the scatter search methodology, for the problem of approximating the efficient frontier of nonlin...
The paper presents a new genetic local search algorithm for multi-objective combinatorial optimization. The goal of the algorithm is to generate in a short time a set of approxima...
User modeling for information retrieval has mostly been studied to improve the effectiveness of information access in centralized repositories. In this paper we explore user model...
Abstract. The genomic median problem is an optimization problem inspired by a biological issue: it aims at finding the chromosome organization of the common ancestor to multiple li...
This paper summarises activities from the iCLEF 2009 task. As in 2008, the task was organised based on users participating in an interactive cross-language image search experiment...
