Commitment-driven distributed joint policy search
Decentralized MDPs provide powerful models of interactions in multi-agent environments, but are often very difficult or even computationally infeasible to solve optimally. Here we...

Local Dimensionality Reduction within Natural Clusters for Medical Data Analysis
Inductive learning systems have been successfully applied in a number of medical domains. Nevertheless, the effective use of these systems requires data preprocessing before apply...

Saliency Density Maximization for Object Detection and Localization
Accurate localization of the salient object from an image is a difficult problem when the saliency map is noisy and incomplete. A fast approach to detect salient objects from image...

Beyond local optimality: An improved approach to hybrid model learning
Abstract-- Local convergence is a limitation of many optimization approaches for multimodal functions. For hybrid model learning, this can mean a compromise in accuracy. We develop...

Credit assignment in adaptive memetic algorithms
Adaptive Memetic Algorithms couple an evolutionary algorithm with a number of local search heuristics for improving the evolving solutions. They are part of a broad family of meta...
