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...
The success of decoder-based evolutionary algorithms (EAs) strongly depends on the achieved locality of operators and decoders. Most approaches to investigate locality properties ...
In order to control the process of data mining and focus on the things of interest to us, many kinds of constraints have been added into the algorithms of data mining. However, di...
While much basic research exists on the effects of various visual properties on visual search, the application of such research to real-world tasks is lacking. The purpose of this...
The investigation of a software system prior to a modification task often constitutes an important fraction of the overall effort associated with the task. We present Suade, an Ec...
