Multimodal optimization problems consist in detecting all global and local optima of a problem. A new evolutionary approach to multimodal optimization called Roaming technique (RO...
LAMA is a classical planning system based on heuristic forward search. Its core feature is the use of a pseudo-heuristic derived from landmarks, propositional formulas that must b...
Genetic algorithms are adaptive methods based on natural evolution that may be used for search and optimization problems. They process a population of search space solutions with t...
This paper describes two experiments exploring the potential of the Kriging methodology for constrained simulation optimization. Both experiments study an (s, S) inventory system ...

This paper discusses a series of recombination operators for the timetabling problem. These operators act upon a direct representation of the timetable and maintain the property of...
