We propose an algorithm for function approximation that evolves a set of hierarchical piece-wise linear regressors. The algorithm, named HIRE-Lin, follows the iterative rule learn...
Maintaining diversity is important for the performance of evolutionary algorithms. Diversity mechanisms can enhance global exploration of the search space and enable crossover to ...

Recent years have seen a significant increase in our understanding of high-dimensional nearest neighbor search (NNS) for distances like the 1 and 2 norms. By contrast, our underst...
The problem of computing bounds on the region-of-attraction for systems with polynomial vector fields is considered. Invariant subsets of the region-of-attraction are characterize...
This paper introduces an ant-based colony system for the representation of a verbal route description. It is grounded on a natural metaphor that mimics the behavior of ant colonie...
