Recently, a new iterative optimization framework utilizing an evolutionary algorithm called "Prototype Optimization with Evolved iMprovement Steps" (POEMS) was introduced...
Wepropose a method called Selection by Performance Prediction (SPP) which allows one, when faced with a particular problem instance, to select a Branch and Boundalgorithm from amo...
A novel framework for mining temporal association rules by discovering itemsets with a genetic algorithm is introduced. Metaheuristics have been applied to association rule mining,...
Abstract- This paper presents a new operator for genetic algorithms that enhances their convergence in the case of nonlinear problems with nonlinear equality constraints. The propo...
