In this paper, we proposed Fittest Individual Refinement (FIR), a crossover based local search method for Differential Evolution (DE). The FIR scheme accelerates DE by enhancing...
— In this paper, the performance of a sequential Differential Evolution (DE) enhanced by neighborhood search (SDENS) is reported on the set of benchmark functions provided for th...
The k-means algorithm with cosine similarity, also known as the spherical k-means algorithm, is a popular method for clustering document collections. However, spherical k-means ca...
A new mutation concept is proposed to generalize local selection based Differential Evolution algorithm to work in general multimodal problems. Three variations of the proposed me...
— This paper attempts to address the question of scaling up Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithms to high dimensional optimization problems. We present a cooperative coevo...
