The paper presents an evaluation of four clustering algorithms: k-means, average linkage, complete linkage, and Ward’s method, with the latter three being different hierarchical...
Abstract. Evolutionary methods are now beginning to be used routinely in design applications. However, even with computing speeds growing continuously, for many complex design prob...
The application of resource-defined fitness sharing (RFS) to shape nesting problems reveals a remarkable ability to discover tilings [7, 8]. These tilings represent exact covers...
