The bin packing problem (BPP) is a real-world problem that arises in different industrial applications related to minimization of space or time. The aim of this research is to au...
Hereditary Repulsion (HR) is a selection method coupled with a fitness constraint that substantially improves the performance and consistency of evolutionary algorithms. This als...
In this paper we embed evolutionary computation into statistical learning theory. First, we outline the connection between large margin optimization and statistical learning and s...
This paper presents a genetic programming based approach for optimizing the feature extraction step of a handwritten character recognizer. This recognizer uses a simple multilayer ...
In this article, we describe the application of an enhanced genetic algorithm to the problem of hardware-software codesign. Starting from a source code written in a high-level lan...
