Most game programs have a large number of parameters that are crucial for their performance. Tuning these parameters by hand is rather difficult. Therefore automatic optimization a...
This paper proposes a new solution to the vehicle routing problem with time windows using an evolution strategy adopting viral infection. The problem belongs to the NP-hard class a...
A new evolutionary algorithm, Elitistic Evolution (termed EEv), is proposed in this paper. EEv is an evolutionary method for numerical optimization with adaptive behavior. EEv uses...
In the 1990s and early 2000s several papers investigated the relative merits of polynomial-basis and normal-basis computations for F2n . Even for particularly squaring-friendly app...
