Abstract. A formal, representation-independent form of a memetic algorithm-a genetic algorithm incorporating local search--is introduced. A generalisedform of N-point crossover is ...
—Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm is a novel meta-heuristic algorithm for the approximate solution of combinatorial optimization problems that has been inspired by the for...
The rapid advances of genome-scale sequencing have brought out the necessity of developing new data processing techniques for enormous genomic data. Microarrays, for example, can g...
