In this paper, we study the performances of the NEW Unconstrained Optimization Algorithm (NEWUOA) with different numbers of interpolation points. NEWUOA is a trust region method, ...
We study the problem of aggregating partial rankings. This problem is motivated by applications such as meta-searching and information retrieval, search engine spam fighting, e-c...
Distributed allocation and multiagent coordination problems can be solved through combinatorial auctions. However, most of the existing winner determination algorithms for combina...
Previous work on multiobjective genetic algorithms has been focused on preventing genetic drift and the issue of convergence has been given little attention. In this paper, we pre...
Obtaining fast and good quality approximations to data distributions is a problem of central interest to database management. A variety of popular database applications including,...
