Many computer vision applications such as image filtering, segmentation and stereo-vision can be formulated as optimization problems.Whereas in previous decades continuousdomain, ...

In this article, a hybrid optimization method has been proposed consisting of modified ant colony systems (ACSs) and constrained nonlinear programming (NLP) to solve the problems ...
Abstract. The usual approach to deal with noise present in many realworld optimization problems is to take an arbitrary number of samples of the objective function and use the samp...
In this paper, we provide a heuristic procedure, that performs well from a global optimality point of view, for an important and difficult class of bilevel programs. The algorithm...
: This paper describes the implementation of a meta-heuristic optimization approach, Tabu Search (TS), for Heat Exchanger Networks (HEN) synthesis and compares this approach to oth...
