— In this paper a method for the fast determination of distortion-based optimal unequal error protection (UEP) of bitstreams generated by embedded image coders is described. The ...
In continuous optimisation, surrogate models (SMs) are used when tackling real-world problems whose candidate solutions are expensive to evaluate. In previous work, we showed that...
This paper introduces and studies the maximum k-plex problem, which arises in social network analysis and has wider applicability in several important areas employing graph-based ...
A hybrid Neural-Genetic algorithm (NG) is presented for the frequency assignment problem in satellite communications (FAPSC). The goal of this problem is minimizing the cochannel i...
A new model for evolving the structure of a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm is proposed in this paper. The model is a hybrid technique that combines a Genetic Algorithm...
