Let be a preference relation on a convex set F. Necessary and sufficient conditions are given that guarantee the existence of a set {ul} of affine utility functions on F such th...
The links between genetic algorithms and population-based Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods are explored. Genetic algorithms (GAs) are well-known for their capability to opt...
We present a general method for evaluating and visualizing evolutionary dynamics of self-replicators using a graph-based representation for genealogy. Through a transformation from...
In this paper, we introduce an algebraic approach to the foundations of data mining. Our approach is based upon two algebras of functions de ned over a common state space X and a ...
Model based error compensation of a robotic manipulator, also known as robot calibration, requires the identification of its generalized errors. These errors are found from measur...
