This paper describes a mixed method, empirical analysis of conversation reuse in an online technical support community. I find that the same characteristics that make the conversa...
In order to solve nonstationary optimization problems efficiently, evolutionary algorithms need sufficient diversity to adapt to environmental changes. The dual-population genetic...
This paper presents a data-driven approach for feature selection to address the common problem of dealing with high-dimensional data. This approach is able to handle the real-valu...
