Intrinsic evolution is often limited to using standard electronic components as the media for problem solving. It has been argued that because such components are human designed a...
—In kernel based regression techniques (such as Support Vector Machines or Least Squares Support Vector Machines) it is hard to analyze the influence of perturbed inputs on the ...
Given a set P of n points in Rd, a fundamental problem in computational geometry is concerned with finding the smallest shape of some type that encloses all the points of P. Well-...
