Abstract. A key problem in designing artificial neural networks for visual object recognition tasks is the proper choice of the network architecture. Evolutionary optimization met...

A general model for the coevolution of cooperating species is presented. This model is instantiated and tested in the domain of function optimization, and compared with a tradition...
Abstract. This paper proposes to apply the branch and bound principle from combinatorial optimization to the Dissimilarity Self-Organizing Map (DSOM), a variant of the SOM that can...
We extend stochastic network optimization theory to treat networks with arbitrary sample paths for arrivals, channels, and mobility. The network can experience unexpected link or n...
The Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows is a complex combinatorial problem with many real-world applications in transportation and distribution logistics. Its main objective...
