This paper reports on the development of a novel island model for evolutionary algorithms, which is intrinsically parallel and intended to better utilise resources and outlier sol...
Recent methods based on interest points and local fingerprints have been proposed to perform robust CBCD (content-based copy detection) of images and video. They include two steps...
We introduce a novel stochastic local search algorithm for the vertex cover problem. Compared to current exhaustive search techniques, our algorithm achieves excellent performance ...
This paper presents a new algorithm for enhancing the efficiency of simulation-based optimisation using local search and neural network metamodels. The local search strategy is ba...
Abstract. This paper proposes to use local search inside filtering algorithms of combinatorial structures for which achieving a desired level of consistency is too computationally ...
