Recently, advances have been made in continuous, normal– distribution–based Estimation–of–Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) by scaling the variance up from the maximum–like...
Prototyping is the pivotal activity that structures innovation, collaboration, and creativity in design. Prototypes embody design hypotheses and enable designers to test them. Fra...
We present a general decomposition algorithm that is uniformly applicable to every (suitably normalized) instance of Convex Quadratic Optimization and efficiently approaches an o...
