A new stochastic clustering algorithm is introduced that aims to locate all the local minima of a multidimensional continuous and differentiable function inside a bounded domain. ...
Let A be a d by n matrix, d < n. Let C be the regular cross polytope (octahedron) in Rn . It has recently been shown that properties of the centrosymmetric polytope P = AC are ...
The frequency with which various elements of the search space of a given evolutionary algorithm are sampled is affected by the family of recombination (reproduction) operators. Th...
Background: The design of long oligonucleotides for spotted DNA microarrays requires detailed attention to ensure their optimal performance in the hybridization process. The main ...
