Cooperative coevolution is often used to solve difficult optimization problems by means of problem decomposition. Its performance on this task is influenced by many design decisio...
We propose an optimization algorithm to execute a previously unlearned task-oriented command in an intelligent machine. We show that a well-defined, physically bounded, task-orien...
The problem of optimal synthesis of an integrated water system is addressed in this work, where water using processes and water treatment operations are combined into a single net...
In this paper, we give the rst constant-factor approximationalgorithmfor the rooted Orienteering problem, as well as a new problem that we call the Discounted-Reward TSP, motivate...

We consider the task of assigning experts from a portfolio of specialists in order to solve a set of tasks. We apply a Bayesian model which combines collaborative filtering with a...
