Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) are a class of evolutionary algorithms that use machine learning techniques to solve optimization problems. Machine learning is used t...
We show how a random mutation hill climber that does multilevel selection utilizes transposition to escape local optima on the discrete Hierarchical-If-And-Only-If (HIFF) problem....
In this paper we argue that the use of a language with a type system, together with higher-order facilities and functions, provides a suitable basis for knowledge representation in...

Multi-label learning deals with ambiguous examples each may belong to several concept classes simultaneously. In this learning framework, the inherent ambiguity of each example is...
Probabilistic model building methods can render difficult problems feasible by identifying and exploiting dependencies. They build a probabilistic model from the statistical prope...
