Image filtering involves taking a digital image and producing a new image from it. In software packages such as Adobe’s Photoshop, image filters are used to produce artistic ve...
Two independent evolutionary modeling methods, based on fuzzy logic and neural networks respectively, are applied to predicting trend reversals in financial time series, and their...
This paper advances new methods for ecosystemic approaches to evolutionary music and art. We explore the biological concept of the niche and its role in evolutionary dynamics, appl...
Abstract. This paper describes the application of a hybrid genetic algorithm to a real-world instance of the university course timetabling problem. We address the timetabling of la...
In this paper we propose a new tabu search hyperheuristic which makes individual low level heuristics tabu dynamically using an analogy with the Binary Exponential Back Off (BEBO) ...

The problem of finding a symmetric connectivity topology with minimum power consumption in a wireless ad-hoc network is NPhard. This work presents a new iterated local search to s...
In a recent paper an algorithm for solving MAX-SAT was proposed which worked by clustering good solutions and restarting the search from the closest feasible solutions. This was sh...
We consider a real-world problem arising in a warehouse for spare parts. Items ordered by customers shall be collected and for this purpose our task is to determine efficient picku...
Abstract. This paper introduces a new tabu search algorithm for a twodimensional (2D) Strip Packing Problem (2D-SPP). It integrates several key features: A direct representation of...
We present a hybrid evolutionary algorithm for the graph coloring problem (Evocol). Evocol is based on two simple-but-effective ideas. First, we use an enhanced crossover that col...
