Discriminative HMM training with GA for handwritten word recognition
This paper presents a recognition system for isolated handwritten Bangla words, with a fixed lexicon, using a left-right Hidden Markov Model (HMM). A stochastic search method, nam...

Decomposition Techniques for a Loosely-Coupled Resource Allocation Problem
We are interested by contributing to stochastic problems of which the main distinction is that some tasks may create other tasks. In particular, we present a first approach which...

On the moments of the sampling distribution of particle swarm optimisers
A method is presented that allows one to exactly determine all the characteristics of a PSO’s sampling distribution and explain how it changes over time, in the presence stochas...

Robot gaits evolved by combining genetic algorithms and binary hill climbing
In this paper an evolutionary algorithm is used for evolving gaits in a walking biped robot controller. The focus is fast learning in a real-time environment. An incremental appro...
