An Evolutionary Algorithm for the Block Stacking Problem
Abstract. How has a stack of n blocks to be arranged in order to maximize its overhang over a table edge while being stable? This question can be seen as an example application for...

Active Learning for Large Multi-class Problems
Scarcity and infeasibility of human supervision for large scale multi-class classification problems necessitates active learning. Unfortunately, existing active learning methods ...

Voronoi-initializated island models for solving real-coded deceptive problems
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...

Fixed-parameter evolutionary algorithms and the vertex cover problem
In this paper, we consider multi-objective evolutionary algorithms for the Vertex Cover problem in the context of parameterized complexity. We relate the runtime of our algorithms...

Budget constrained bidding in keyword auctions and online knapsack problems
We consider the budget-constrained bidding optimization problem for sponsored search auctions, and model it as an online (multiple-choice) knapsack problem. We design both determi...
