Process network problems can be formulated as Generalized Disjunctive Programs where a logicbased representation is used to deal with the discrete and continuous decisions. A new ...
We consider the restoration of piecewise constant images where the number of the regions and their values are not fixed in advance, with a good difference of piecewise constant val...

This paper describes e cient and optimal encoding and representation of object contours. Contours are approximated by connected second-order spline segments, each de ned by three ...

Polyhedral mesh surfaces are widely utilized to represent objects reconstructed from 3D ranged images. In computer-aided engineering, it is desired to not only observe but also me...
This paper proposes a novel recombination scheme for evolutionary algorithms, which can guide the new population generation towards the maximum increase of the objective function....
