In this paper we address image retrieval by similarity in multimedia databases. We discuss the generation and use of signatures computed from image content. The proposed technique...
This paper studies the issue of space coordinate change in genetic algorithms, based on two methods: convex quadratic approximations, and principal component analysis. In both met...

This paper describes a speciation method that allows an evolutionary process to learn several robot behaviors using a single execution. Species are created in behavioral space in ...
We develop adaptive sampling criteria which guarantee a topologically faithful mesh and demonstrate an improvement and simplification over earlier results, albeit restricted to 2D...
The aim of this research is twofold: Firstly, to model and solve a complex nurse scheduling problem with an integer programming formulation and evolutionary algorithms. Secondly, ...
