—Normalization before clustering is often needed for proximity indices, such as Euclidian distance, which are sensitive to differences in the magnitude or scales of the attribute...
While existing mathematical descriptions can accurately account for phenomena at microscopic scales (e.g. molecular dynamics), these are often high-dimensional, stochastic and thei...
In this paper we introduce an evolutionary algorithm for solving a copper mine planning problem. In the last 10 years this realworld problem has been tackled using linear integer p...
—In this paper, the performance of dynamic multi-swarm particle swarm optimizer (DMS-PSO) on the set of benchmark functions provided for the CEC2008 Special Session on Large Scal...
AbstractSelf-Assembly is a powerful autopoietic mechanism ubiquitous throughout the natural world. It may be found at the molecular scale and also at astronomical scales. Self-asse...
