The problem of multiple sequence alignment is important for bioinformatics. This problem is widely studied and a popular tool to solve this problem is Clustal X. This work introdu...
Abstract— Tuning the parameters of an evolutionary algorithm (EA) to a given problem at hand is essential for good algorithm performance. Optimizing parameter values is, however,...
Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) technique proved its ability to deal with very complicated optimization and search problems. This paper proposes a new particle swarm variant whi...
This paper reports work investigating various evolutionary approaches to vertex cover (VC), a well-known NP-Hard optimization problem. Central to each of the algorithms is a novel ...
This paper introduces hyper-ellipsoids as an improvement to hyper-spheres as intrusion detectors in a negative selection problem within an artificial immune system. Since hyper-s...
