This paper describes and analyzes the aggregation pheromone system (APS) algorithm, which extends ant colony optimization (ACO) to continuous domains. APS uses the collective behav...
In this paper, we use the exact model (or dynamical system approach) to describe the standard evolutionary algorithm (EA) as a discrete dynamical system for dynamic optimization pr...
Niching techniques play an important role in evolutionary algorithms. Existing niching methods often require userspecified parameters, limiting their usefulness. This paper propos...
This work introduces a highly constrained school timetabling problem which was modeled from the requirements of a German high school. The concept for solving the problem uses a hyb...
Gas chemical sensors are strongly affected by the so-called drift, i.e., changes in sensors’ response caused by poisoning and aging that may significantly spoil the measures g...
