Several recent publications have exhibited relationships between the theories of logic programming and of neural networks. We consider a general approach to representing normal lo...
We consider a parameterized family of closed planar curves and introduce an evolution process for identifying a member of the family that approximates a given unorganized point cl...
Abstract. We revisit Gaussian Adaptation (GaA), a black-box optimizer for discrete and continuous problems that has been developed in the late 1960’s. This largely neglected sear...
It has previously been shown analytically and experimentally that continuous Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) based on the normal pdf can easily suffer from premature ...
Many scenarios involve merging of two B-tree indexes, both covering the same key range. Increasing demand for continuous availability and high performance requires that such mergi...
