In this paper, a diversity generating mechanism is proposed for an Evolutionary Programming (EP) algorithm that determines the basic structure of Multilayer Perceptron classifiers ...
Nurse rostering is a difficult search problem with many constraints. In the literature, a number of approaches have been investigated including penalty function methods to tackle t...

In mobile ad hoc networks, nodes have the inherent ability to move. Aside from conducting attacks to maximize their utility and cooperating with regular nodes to deceive them, mali...
This paper proposes a framework for distributed sequential parameter estimation in wireless sensor networks. In the proposed scheme, the estimator is updated sequentially at the c...
We study the problem of selecting a subset of k random variables from a large set, in order to obtain the best linear prediction of another variable of interest. This problem can ...
