In this paper we introduce the variable fitness function which can be used to control the search direction of any search based optimisation heuristic where more than one objective ...

The problem of finding the broadcast scheme with minimum power consumption in a wireless ad-hoc network is NP-hard. This work presents a new hybrid algorithm to solve this problem...
Abstract. In 1965 Motzkin and Straus established a remarkable connection between the local/global maximizers of the Lagrangian of a graph G over the standard simplex ∆ and the ma...
The importance of tuning a search algorithm for the specific features of the target search space has been known for quite some time. However, when dealing with multiobjective prob...
This paper is about Reinforcement Learning (RL) applied to online parameter tuning in Stochastic Local Search (SLS) methods. In particular a novel application of RL is considered i...
Abstract. The practical utility of optimization technologies is often impacted by factors that reflect how these tools are used in practice, including whether various real-world c...
