: This paper describes the implementation of a meta-heuristic optimization approach, Tabu Search (TS), for Heat Exchanger Networks (HEN) synthesis and compares this approach to oth...
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 ...
This paper describes the implementation and the results for CMA-EGS on the BBOB 2010 noiseless function testbed. The CMA-EGS is a hybrid strategy which combines elements from grad...
In a multimodal optimization task, the main purpose is to find multiple optimal solutions (global and local), so that the user can have a better knowledge about different optima...
The (1+1)-CMA-ES is an adaptive stochastic algorithm for the optimization of objective functions defined on a continuous search space in a black-box scenario. In this paper, an i...
