DPOP is an algorithm for distributed constraint optimization which has, as main drawback, the exponential size of some of its messages. Recently, some algorithms for distributed c...
This paper describes initial testing of a novel idea to combine a CGP with an EDA. In recent work a new improved crossover technique was successfully applied to a CGP. To implemen...
This article arguments that rank correlation coefficients are powerful association measures and how can they be adopted by EDAs. A new EDA implements the proposed ideas: the Non-P...
Abstract. We consider a continuous-time model for inventory management with Markov modulated non-stationary demands. We introduce active learning by assuming that the state of the ...
A procedure is described for finding sets of key players in a social network. A key assumption is that the optimal selection of key players depends on what they are needed for. Acc...
