In this paper, we review parallel search techniques for approximating the global optimal solution of combinatorial optimization problems. Recent developments on parallel implementa...

We investigate how a niching based evolutionary algorithm fares on the BBOB function test set, knowing that most problems are not very well suited to this algorithm class. However...
Abstract. Robustness is pivot for robots operating in all-terrain environments. This demand comes mainly due to the highly heterogeneous and unstructured nature of the terrain. Two...
We derive a number of well known deterministic latent variable models such as PCA, ICA, EPCA, NMF and PLSA as variational EM approximations with point posteriors. We show that the...

We consider the problem of non-bifurcated multicommodity flows rerouting in survivable connection-oriented networks. We focus on local restoration, in which the backup route is rer...
