— One of the major driving forces of Bacterial Foraging Optimization Algorithm (BFOA) is the reproduction phenomenon of virtual bacteria each of which models one trial solution o...
— Recently it has been proved that the (1+1)-EA produces poor worst-case approximations for the vertex cover problem. In this paper the result is extended to the (1+λ)-EA by pro...
Abstract— We consider a distributed multi-agent network system where the goal is to minimize an objective function that can be written as the sum of component functions, each of ...
In this paper, the global optimization problem with an objective function that is multiextremal that satisfies the Lipschitz condition over a hypercube is considered. An algorithm...
: In this paper, we are interested in texture modeling with functional analysis spaces. We focus on the case of color image processing, and in particular color image decomposition....
