Gaussian mean-shift (GMS) is a clustering algorithm that has been shown to produce good image segmentations (where each pixel is represented as a feature vector with spatial and r...
Abstract-- This paper develops a switching strategy for networked mobile sensing agents to automatically decide when to perform individual exploration and when to perform cooperati...
—Despite the range of applications and successes of evolutionary algorithms, expensive fitness computations often form a critical performance bottleneck. A preferred method of r...
Abstract. We propose simple randomized strategies for sequential prediction under imperfect monitoring, that is, when the forecaster does not have access to the past outcomes but r...
Self-adaptation of the mutation strengths is a powerful mechanism in evolution strategies (ES), but it can fail. As a consequence premature convergence or ending up in a local opt...
