—This paper applies the Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm to the task of automatic fuzzy clustering in a Multi-objective Optimization (MO) framework. It compares the performa...
This paper proposes a hybrid genetic algorithm for multiple sequence alignment. The algorithm evolves guide sequences and aligns input sequences based on the guide sequences. It a...
In combinatorial solution spaces Iterated Local Search (ILS) turns out to be exceptionally successful. The question arises: is ILS also capable of improving the optimization proces...
Local search (LS) algorithms are among the most powerful techniques for solving computationally hard problems in combinatorial optimization. These algorithms could be viewed as &q...
Optimal fractal coding consists of finding in a finite set of contractive affine mappings one whose unique fixed point is closest to the original image. Optimal fractal coding is ...
