An original approach, termed Divide-and-Evolve is proposed to hybridize Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) with Operational Research (OR) methods in the domain of Temporal Planning Prob...
Feature selection is an important issue for object detection. In this paper, we propose an effective wrapper-based feature selection scheme using Binary Particle Swarm Optimizatio...
Maintaining diversity is important for the performance of evolutionary algorithms. Diversity mechanisms can enhance global exploration of the search space and enable crossover to ...

Background: Biologists are often interested in performing a simple database search to identify proteins or genes that contain a well-defined sequence pattern. Many databases do no...
This work introduces a highly constrained school timetabling problem which was modeled from the requirements of a German high school. The concept for solving the problem uses a hyb...
