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...
Existing approaches for optimizing queries in data integration use decoupled strategies–attempting to optimize coverage and cost in two separate phases. Since sources tend to ha...
A modification of the standard Simulated Annealing (SA) algorithm is presented for finding the global minimum of a continuous multidimensional, multimodal function. We report resu...
A global approach to hand gesture vocabulary design is proposed which includes human as well as technical design factors. The human centered desires of multiple users are implicit...
A problem of assigning cooperating uninhabited aerial vehicles to perform multiple tasks on multiple targets is posed as a new combinatorial optimization problem. A genetic algori...
