— Over the recent years, there has been increasing research activities made on improving the efficacy of Memetic Algorithm (MA) for solving complex optimization problems. Partic...
Statistical reconstruction algorithms in transmission tomography yield improved images relative to the conventional FBP method. The most popular iterative algorithms for this prob...
an abstract optimization problem arising from biomolecular sequence analysis. For a sequence A of pairs (ai, wi) for i = 1, . . . , n and wi > 0, a segment A(i, j) is a consecu...
In comparative genomics studies, finding a minimum length sequences of reversals, so called sorting by reversals, has been the topic of a huge literature. Since there are many mini...
Much excitement has been generated by the success of stochastic local search procedures at finding solutions to large, very hard satisfiability problems. Many of the problems on wh...
