Using a set of model landscapes we examine how different mutation rates affect different search metrics. We show that very universal heuristics, such as 1/N and the error threshol...
We present a domain independent off-line adaptation technique called Stochastic Plan Optimization for finding and improving plans in real-time strategy games. Our method is based ...
Simulation optimization (SO) is the process of finding the optimum design of a system whose performance measure(s) are estimated via simulation. We propose some ideas to improve o...
Global routing is an important step in the physical design process. In this paper, we propose a new global routing algorithm Archer, which resolves some of the most common problem...
Abstract. In this paper, we propose a hybrid genetic algorithm for partitioning a VLSI circuit graph into two disjoint graphs of minimum cut size. The algorithm includes a local op...
