Ensemble Approach for the Classification of Imbalanced Data
Ensembles are often capable of greater prediction accuracy than any of their individual members. As a consequence of the diversity between individual base-learners, an ensemble wil...

Fitness-proportional negative slope coefficient as a hardness measure for genetic algorithms
The Negative Slope Coefficient (nsc) is an empirical measure of problem hardness based on the analysis of offspring-fitness vs. parent-fitness scatterplots. The nsc has been teste...

Using Expectation Maximization to Find Likely Assignments for Solving CSP's
We present a new probabilistic framework for finding likely variable assignments in difficult constraint satisfaction problems. Finding such assignments is key to efficient sea...
