This paper gives an algorithm for finding the minimum weight tree having k edges in an edge weighted graph. The algorithm combines a search and optimization technique based on phe...
In this paper, we present a novel evolutionary algorithm, called NOCEA, which is suitable for Data Mining (DM) clustering applications. NOCEA evolves individuals that consist of a ...

The interplay between the mutation operator and the selection mechanism plays a fundamental role in the behaviour of evolutionary algorithms (EAs). However, this interplay is stil...
This paper proposes a new approach by combining the Evolutionary Algorithm and Imperialist Competitive Algorithm. This approach tries to capture several people involved in communit...
