Both optimization and learning play important roles in a system for intelligent tasks. On one hand, we introduce three types of optimization tasks studied in the machine learning l...
We consider the problem faced by a mobile robot that has to reach a given target by traveling through an unmapped region in the plane containing oriented rectangular obstacles. We...

Over the past decade, software architecture research has emerged as the principled study of the overall structure of software systems, especially the relations among subsystems an...
In combinatorial solution spaces Iterated Local Search (ILS) turns out to be exceptionally successful. The question arises: is ILS also capable of improving the optimization proces...
