In this paper, we propose an extended local search framework to solve combinatorial optimization problems with data uncertainty. Our approach represents a major departure from sce...
Ranking functions are instrumental for the success of an information retrieval (search engine) system. However nearly all existing ranking functions are manually designed based on...

The application of network analysis to emergent mating topologies in spatially structured genetic algorithms is presented in this preliminary study as a framework for inferring ev...
Embedded Cartesian Genetic Programming (ECGP) is an extension of Cartesian Genetic Programming (CGP) that can automatically acquire, evolve and re-use partial solutions in the for...

We present a unified heuristic, which is able to solve five different variants of the vehicle routing problem: the vehicle routing problem with time windows (VRPTW), the capacit...
