Product Distribution (PD) theory was recently developed as a framework for analyzing and optimizing distributed systems. In this paper we demonstrate its use for adaptive distribu...
: The particle swarm is one of the most powerful methods for solving global optimization problems. This method is an adaptive algorithm based on social-psychological metaphor. A po...

Given an object model and a black-box measure of similarity between the model and candidate targets, we consider visual object tracking as a numerical optimization problem. During...
Research into ant colony algorithms for solving continuous optimization problems forms one of the most significant and promising areas in swarm computation. Although traditional an...
—When SA is applied to continuous optimization problems, the design of the neighborhood used in SA becomes important. A lot of experiments are necessary to determine an appropria...
