In this paper, we introduce a new image database, consisting of examples of artists' work. Successful classification of this database suggests the capacity to automatically re...
Rigorous runtime analyses of evolutionary algorithms (EAs) mainly investigate algorithms that use elitist selection methods. Two algorithms commonly studied are Randomized Local S...

Deceptive problems have always been considered difficult for Genetic Algorithms. To cope with this characteristic, the literature has proposed the use of Parallel Genetic Algorith...
In this paper we consider solving a complex real life break scheduling problem. This problem of high practical relevance arises in many working areas, e.g. in air traffic control a...
