Our goal is to use the vast repositories of available open source code to generate specific functions or classes that meet a user’s specifications. The key words here are spec...
Abstract— The role of gradient estimation in global optimization is investigated. The concept of a regional gradient is introduced as a tool for analyzing and comparing different...
In this paper, we introduce a novel binary method for fast computation of an objective function to measure inter and intra class similarities, which is used for combining multiple...
This paper presents a simple, hybrid two phase global optimization algorithm called DE-PSO for solving global optimization problems. DE-PSO consists of alternating phases of Diffe...
This paper presents a comparative study of color descriptors for content-based image retrieval on the Web. Several image descriptors were compared theoretically and the most relev...
