Abstract. Finding appropriate parameter values for Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) is one of the persistent challenges of Evolutionary Computing. In recent publications we showed how...
Robust extraction of text from scene images is essential for successful scene text recognition. Scene images usually have non-uniform illumination, complex background, and existen...
Barrier coverage in a sensor network has the goal of ensuring that all paths through the surveillance domain joining points in some start region S to some target region T will inte...
No search engine is perfect. A typical type of imperfection is the preference misalignment between search engines and end users, e.g., from time to time, web users skip higherrank...
Dial-a-Ride problems consist of a set V of n vertices in a metric space (denoting travel time between vertices) and a set of m objects represented as source-destination pairs {(si,...
