Cyclic genetic algorithms can be used to generate single loop control programs for robots. While successful in generating controllers for individual leg movement, gait generation,...
Genetic algorithms (GAs) are stochastic search methods that have been successfully applied in many search, optimization, and machine learning problems. Their parallel counterpart (...
Nowadays, searching information in the web or in any kind of document collection has become one of the most frequent activities. However, user queries can be formulated in a way th...
Given a set of rectangular pieces and a container of fixed width and variable length, the two-dimensional strip packing problem (2D-SPP) consists of orthogonally placing all the p...
This paper introduces the concept of a critical backbone as a minimal set of variables or part of the solution necessary to be within the basin of attraction of the global optimum...
