This research screens the tuning parameters of a combinatorial optimization heuristic. Specifically, it presents a Design of Experiments (DOE) approach that uses a Fractional Fac...
When facing dynamic optimization problems the goal is no longer to find the extrema, but to track their progression through the space as closely as possible. Over these kind of ov...

Abstract— In many software design and evaluation techniques, either the software evolution problem is not systematically elaborated, or only the impact of evolution is considered...
– This article presents a new approach to the evolution of controllers for autonomous agents. We propose the evolution of a connectionist structure where each node has an associa...
