This paper focuses on the computation time of evolutionary algorithms. First, some exact expressions of the mean first hitting times of general evolutionary algorithms in finite...
In distributed and mobile systems with volatile bandwidth and fragile connectivity, non-functional aspects like performance and reliability become more and more important. To forma...
In this paper, we propose a simple framework to characterize the switching behavior between search engines based on click streams. We segment users into a number of categories bas...
Bayesian Model Averaging (BMA) is well known for improving predictive accuracy by averaging inferences over all models in the model space. However, Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC)...
This paper considers iterated ciphers and their resistance against linear and differential cryptanalysis. In the theory of these attacks one assumes independence of the round keys...
