Efficiency enhancement techniques--such as parallelization and hybridization--are among the most important ingredients of practical applications of genetic and evolutionary algori...
Capacitance extraction is an important problem that has been extensively studied. This paper presents a significant improvement for the fast multipole accelerated boundary element...
Image restoration problems are often converted into large-scale, nonsmooth and nonconvex optimization problems. Most existing minimization methods are not efficient for solving su...
— As there are many good optimization algorithms each with its own characteristics, it is very difficult to choose the best method for optimization problems. Thus, it is importa...
Temporally expressive planning, an important class of temporal planning, has attracted much attention lately. Temporally expressive planning is difficult; few existing planners ca...
