—This paper proposes the plateau structure imposed by the Pareto dominance relation as a useful determinant of multiobjective metaheuristic performance. In essence, the dominance...
Let G = (V, E, Q) be a undirected graph, where V is the set of vertices, E is the set of edges, and Q = {Q1, . . . , Qq} is a partition of V into q subsets. We refer to Q1, . . . ...

This paper presents a gregarious particle swarm optimization algorithm (G-PSO) in which the particles explore the search space by aggressively scouting the local minima with the h...
Indexing high-dimensional data for efficient nearest-neighbor searches poses interesting research challenges. It is well known that when data dimension is high, the search time can...
This paper describes a new hybrid method based on the application of the Population Training Algorithm (PTA) and linear programming (LP) for generation of schedules for drivers in...
