Many applications require optimizing an unknown, noisy function that is expensive to evaluate. We formalize this task as a multiarmed bandit problem, where the payoff function is ...

This paper presents a new type of genetic algorithm for the set covering problem. It differs from previous evolutionary approaches first because it is an indirect algorithm, i.e. ...
In order to compute texture atlases with low stretch and hardly visible texture seams existing texture mapping tools pose high demands on the quality of surface representations li...
— The peer-to-peer network for sharing information and data through direct exchange has emerged rapidly in recent years. The searching problem is a basic issue that addresses the...
In classification tasks, class-modular strategy has been widely used. It has outperformed classical strategy for pattern classification task in many applications [1]. However, in ...
