—The k nearest neighbor (k-NN) classifier has been extensively used as a nonparametric technique in Pattern Recognition. However, in some applications where the training set is l...
This paper reconsiders the travelling tournament problem, a complex sport-scheduling application which has attracted significant interest recently. It proposes a population-based...
A modification of the standard Simulated Annealing (SA) algorithm is presented for finding the global minimum of a continuous multidimensional, multimodal function. We report resu...
A fast simulatedannealingalgorithmis developed for automatic object recognition. The object recognition problem is addressed as the problem of best describing a match between a hy...
