Background: In proteomic analysis, MS/MS spectra acquired by mass spectrometer are assigned to peptides by database searching algorithms such as SEQUEST. The assignations of pepti...
Abstract— Developing a full-fledged cost-based XQuery optimizer is a fairly complex task. Nowadays, there is little knowledge concerning suitable cost formulae and optimization ...
Recently, a new iterative optimization framework utilizing an evolutionary algorithm called "Prototype Optimization with Evolved iMprovement Steps" (POEMS) was introduced...
Abstract We propose a new Memetic Particle Swarm Optimization scheme that incorporates local search techniques in the standard Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm, resulting in a...
