Abstract. Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a new evolutionary computation technique. Although PSO algorithm possesses many attractive properties, the methods of selecting inert...
The k-cut problem is an NP-complete problem which consists of finding a partition of a graph into k balanced parts such that the number of cut edges is minimized. Different algori...
Abstract. Bucket elimination (BE) is an exact technique based on variable elimination, commonly used for solving constraint satisfaction problems. We consider the hybridization of ...
Due to the scale and computational complexity of current simulation codes, metamodels (or surrogate models) have become indispensable tools for exploring and understanding the desi...
In this paper we present a concurrent implementation of genetic algorithms designed for shared memory architectures intended to take advantage of multi-core processor platforms. O...
