Subthreshold-seeking behavior occurs when the majority of the points that an algorithm samples have an evaluation less than some target threshold. We characterize sets of functions...
In this paper, we discuss a parallel tabu search algorithm with implementation in a heterogeneous environment. Two parallelization strategies are integrated: functional decomposit...

Crossover operators that preserve common components can also preserve representation level constraints. Consequently, these constraints can be used to beneficially reduce the sea...
— Designing algorithms for multi-robot systems can be a complex and difficult process: the cost of such systems can be very high, collecting experimental data can be timeconsumi...
We study the problem of anonymizing user profiles so that user privacy is sufficiently protected while the anonymized profiles are still effective in enabling personalized web sea...
