Entropy encoding and decoding is a crucial part of any multimedia system that can be highly demanding in terms of computing power. Hardware implementation of typical compression a...
Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) have been proposed as a very powerful heuristic optimization technique to solve complex problems. Many case studies have shown that they work very eff...
We have developed a new GA hardware called GAA-I (Genetic Algorithm Accelerator-I), in which the crossover operator to be applied to each individual was dynamically selected during...
