We have customized learning object metadata (LOM) for educational resources on the basis of the LOM investigated by IEEE [1] and IMS [2], in order to make it consistent with Japan...
Various multi–objective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs) have obtained promising results on various numerical multi– objective optimization problems. The combination with gradi...
We introduce Hegel and Fichte’s dialectic as a search meta-heuristic for constraint satisfaction and optimization. Dialectic is an appealing mental concept for local search as it...
In this study, a new Genetic Algorithm (GA) using the Tabu · Local Search mechanism is proposed. The GA described in this paper is considered a Mega Process GA, which has an effe...
The elevation function on a smoothly embedded 2-manifold in R3 reflects the multiscale topography of cavities and protrusions as local maxima. The function has been useful in iden...
