An ever-increasing amount of data and semantic knowledge in the domain of life sciences is bringing about new data management challenges. In this paper we focus on adding the seman...
This paper focuses on the computation time of evolutionary algorithms. First, some exact expressions of the mean first hitting times of general evolutionary algorithms in finite...
A mediator system is a kind of a meta-search engine that provides a seamlessly integrated search service for diverse search engines (collections). Since collections of a mediator ...
We present the results of experiments using terms from citations for scientific literature search. To index a given document, we use terms used by citing documents to describe that...
This paper presents results of the BBOB-2009 benchmarking of 31 search algorithms on 24 noiseless functions in a black-box optimization scenario in continuous domain. The runtime ...
