This paper focuses on the computation time of evolutionary algorithms. First, some exact expressions of the mean first hitting times of general evolutionary algorithms in finite...
A mediator system is a kind of a meta-search engine that provides a seamlessly integrated search service for diverse search engines (collections). Since collections of a mediator ...
We present the results of experiments using terms from citations for scientific literature search. To index a given document, we use terms used by citing documents to describe that...
This paper presents results of the BBOB-2009 benchmarking of 31 search algorithms on 24 noiseless functions in a black-box optimization scenario in continuous domain. The runtime ...
