The prediction of the native structures of proteins, the socalled protein folding problem, is a NP hard multi-minima optimization problem for which to date no routine solutions ex...
We show that the natural evolutionary algorithm for the all-pairs shortest path problem is significantly faster with a crossover operator than without. This is the first theoret...
Effects based operations (EBO) is a concept based on the premise that a desired strategic outcome can be achieved through synergistic, multiplicative, and cumulative application ...
Domain knowledge is essential for successful problem solving and optimization. This paper introduces a framework in which a form of automatic domain knowledge extraction can be im...
The Vehicle Routing Problem can be seen as a fusion of two well known combinatorial problems, the Travelling Salesman Problem and Bin Packing Problem. It has several variants, the...
