Despite the existence of a number of procedures for real-parameter optimization using evolutionary algorithms, there is still a need of a systematic and unbiased comparison of diļ...
Abstract. In data mining, hybrid intelligent systems present a synergistic combination of multiple approaches to develop the next generation of intelligent systems. Our paper prese...
Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) are well-known optimization approaches to cope with non-linear, complex problems. These population-based algorithms, however, suffer from a general we...
