We suggest a new heuristic for solving unconstrained continuous optimization problems. It is based on a generalized version of the variable neighborhood search metaheuristic. Diff...

Abstract. This paper presents a bimodal biometric verification system based on the fusion of palmprint and face features at the matching-score level. The system combines a new appr...
We consider in this paper a new lagrangean relaxation with clusters for the Manufacturer’s Pallet Loading Problem (MPLP). The relaxation is based on the MPLP formulated as a Max...

Self-organizing systems could serve as a solution for many technical problems where properties like robustness, scalability, and adaptability are required. However, despite all the...
While nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) has successfully been applied for gain-robust multi-pitch detection, a method to track pitch values over time was not provided. We emb...
