A common problem in genetic programming search algorithms is destructive crossover in which the offspring of good parents generally has worse performance than the parents. Design...
In this paper we describe a stochastic local search (SLS) procedure for finding models of satisfiable propositional formulae. This new algorithm, gNovelty+ , draws on the features...

Abstract. This paper introduces a new algorithm, based on the concept of ejection chains, to effectively target vehicle routing problems with time window constraints (VRPTW). Ejec...
In this paper, we present two novel memetic algorithms (MAs) for gene selection. Both are synergies of Genetic Algorithm (wrapper methods) and local search methods (filter methods...
Cascading techniques are commonly used to speed-up the scan of an image for object detection. However, cascades of detectors are slow to train due to the high number of detectors a...
