—Genetic programming (GP), is a very general and efficient technique, often capable of outperforming more specialized techniques on a variety of tasks. In this paper, we suggest ...
Abstract. Researchers have focused on assessing the quality of search algorithms by measuring effort, number of mistakes, runtime distributions and other characteristics. In this p...
Many applications require finding objects closest to a specified location that contains a set of keywords. For example, online yellow pages allow users to specify an address and a ...
This paper describes a novel method which extends the search algorithm of a k-d tree for aligning and merging range images. If the nearest neighbor point is far from a query, many...
Manydesign problems are solved using multiple levels of abstraction, wherea design at one level has combinatorially manychildren at the next level. A stochastic optimization metho...
