In this paper we introduce model-based search as a unifying framework accommodating some recently proposed metaheuristics for combinatorial optimization such as ant colony optimiza...

We consider the problem of determining functions of an image of an object that are insensitive to illumination changes. We rst show that for an object with Lambertian r e e ctanc ...

Recently, a convergence proof of stochastic search algorithms toward finite size Pareto set approximations of continuous multi-objective optimization problems has been given. The...
Meta-heuristics such as simulated annealing, genetic algorithms and tabu search have been successfully applied to many difficult optimization problems for which no satisfactory pro...
