Abstract— For solving multimodal problems by means of evolutionary algorithms, one often resorts to multistarts or niching methods. The latter approach the question: ‘What is e...
Genetic Algorithms are very powerful search methods that are used in different optimization problems. Parallel versions of genetic algorithms are easily implemented and usually in...
The Cross Entropy algorithm is a new search method for combinatorial problem. However, it needs considerable computational time to achieve good solution quality. To make the Cross...
We describe a new family of topic-ranking algorithms for multi-labeled documents. The motivation for the algorithms stems from recent advances in online learning algorithms. The a...
A new stochastic optimization algorithm referred to by the authors as the `Mean-Variance Optimization' (MVO) algorithm is presented in this paper. MVO falls into the category ...
