Conservation of information (COI) popularized by the no free lunch theorem is a great leveler of search algorithms, showing that on average no search outperforms any other. Yet in ...
abstraction heuristics, notably pattern-database and merge-and-shrink heuristics, are employed by some state-ofthe-art optimal heuristic-search planners. The major limitation of t...
Increasingly encompassing models have been suggested for our world. Theories range from generally accepted to increasingly speculative to apparently bogus. The progression of theo...
Several constraint handling techniques have been proposed to be used with the evolutionary algorithms (EAs). According to the no free lunch theorem, it is impossible for a single c...
We present an extension of convex-hull non-negative matrix factorization (CH-NMF) which was recently proposed as a large scale variant of convex non-negative matrix factorization ...
