A modification of the standard Simulated Annealing (SA) algorithm is presented for finding the global minimum of a continuous multidimensional, multimodal function. We report resu...
—The problem of reconstructing the duplication history of a set of tandemly repeated sequences was first introduced by Fitch [4]. Many recent studies deal with this problem, show...
In this paper, we develop new heuristic procedures for the maximum diversity problem (MDP). This NPhard problem has a significant number of practical applications such as environm...
—There is increasing interest in analyzing networks of all types including social, biological, sensor, computer, and transportation networks. Broadly speaking, we may be interest...
This paper presents a memetic algorithm with self-adaptive local search, applied to protein structure prediction in an HP, cubiclattice model. Besides describing in detail how the ...
