The Building Block Hypothesis suggests that Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are well-suited for hierarchical problems, where efficient solving requires proper problem decomposition and a...
In some cases, evolutionary algorithms represent individuals as typical binary trees with n leaves and n-1 internal nodes. When designing a crossover operator for a particular rep...
In this paper, a state-based approach for the Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) is proposed. The key novelty is an original use of state memorization during search to prevent ...
Semantic overlay networks cluster peers that are semantically, thematically or socially close into groups by means of a rewiring procedure that is periodically executed by each pe...
With the increasing popularity of recommender systems in commercial services, the quality of recommendations has increasingly become an important to study, much like the quality o...
