— This paper presents an improvement to the vanilla version of the simulated annealing algorithm by using opposite neighbors. This new technique, is based on the recently propose...
— The exchange Monte Carlo method was proposed as an improved algorithm of Markov Chain Monte Carlo method and its effectiveness has been shown in many fields. In the exchange M...
— Backpropagation through time is a very popular discrete-time recurrent neural network training algorithm. However, the computational time associated with the learning process t...
Abstract— This paper presents a new development of selforganizing maps (SOM), realized by combining them with the idea of a modular network. This we called a modular network SOM ...
A large body of research has investigated the advantages of combining phenotype adaptation and genotype adaptation. The hybridization of genetic search and local search methods, of...
