Measuring mobility and the performance of global search algorithms
The global search properties of heuristic search algorithms are not well understood. In this paper, we introduce a new metric, mobility, that quantifies the dispersion of local o...

Generic Incremental Algorithms for Local Search
When a new (global) constraint is introduced in local search, measures for the penalty and variable conflicts of that constraint must be defined, and incremental algorithms for m...

A genetic algorithm for simultaneous localization and mapping
— This paper addresses the problem of simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) by a mobile robot. The SLAM problem is defined as a global optimization problem in which the o...

Grid-Enabling an Efficient Algorithm for Demanding Global Optimization Problems in Genetic Analysis
Abstract. We study the implementation on grid systems of an efficient algorithm for demanding global optimization problems. Specifically, we consider problems arising in the geneti...

Critical factors in the performance of novelty search
Novelty search is a recently proposed method for evolutionary computation designed to avoid the problem of deception, in which the fitness function guides the search process away...
