This paper shows a method to reduce the number of input variables to represent incompletely specified index generation functions. A compound variable is generated by EXORing the o...
This paper presents the result for Simultaneous Perturbation Stochastic Approximation (SPSA) on the BBOB 2010 noiseless testbed. SPSA is a stochastic gradient approximation strate...
In this paper, a hybrid algorithm based on the Multiple Offspring Sampling framework is presented and benchmarked on the BBOB-2010 noisy testbed. MOS allows the seamless combinat...
We present an algorithm for finding a system of recurrence relations for the number of permutations of length n that satisfy a certain set of conditions. A rewriting of these rela...
We describe a combinatorial algorithm which, given a monotone and consistent symmetric set function d on a finite set V in the sense of Rizzi [Riz00], constructs a non trivial set...
