A “plan diagram” is a pictorial enumeration of the execution plan choices of a database query optimizer over the relational selectivity space. In this paper, we present and an...
Abstract. This paper proposes a novel curvilinear structure detector, called Optimally Oriented Flux (OOF). OOF finds an optimal axis on which image gradients are projected in orde...
Research into ant colony algorithms for solving continuous optimization problems forms one of the most significant and promising areas in swarm computation. Although traditional an...
A novel approach to multimodal optimization called Roaming Agent-Based Collaborative Evolutionary Model (RACE) combining several evolutionary techniques with agent-based modeling ...

In this paper, we study a flexible piecewise approximation technique based on the use of the idea of the partition of unity. The approximations are piecewisely defined, globally sm...
