A new stochastic method for locating the global minimum of a multidimensional function inside a rectangular hyperbox is presented. A sampling technique is employed that makes use ...
Automatic design of software architecture by use of genetic algorithms has already been shown to be feasible. A natural problem is to augment – if not replace – genetic algori...
In this paper we introduce an efficient implementation of asynchronously parallel genetic algorithm with adaptive genetic operators. The classic genetic algorithm paradigm is exte...
This paper presents a novel vector quantizer (VQ) design algorithm for a burst error channel (BEC). The algorithm minimizes the average distortion when the BEC is in normal state o...
Hierarchical menus are now ubiquitous. The performance of the menu depends on many factors: structure, layout, colors and so on. There has been extensive research on novel menus, ...
