Estimation of distribution algorithms (EDAs) are widely used in stochastic optimization. Impressive experimental results have been reported in the literature. However, little work ...
With the availability of large datasets in a variety of scientific and commercial domains, data mining has emerged as an important area within the last decade. Data mining techni...
The problem of figure-ground separation is tackled from the perspective of combinatorial optimization. Previous attempts have used deterministic optimization techniques based on re...
A limited memory version of the covariance matrix adaptation evolution strategy (CMA-ES) is presented. This algorithm, L-CMA-ES, improves the space and time complexity of the CMA-...
