Local genetic algorithms have been designed with the aim of providing effective intensification. One of their most outstanding features is that they may help classical local searc...
Similarity search, namely, finding approximate nearest neighborhoods, is the core of many large scale machine learning or vision applications. Recently, many research results dem...
Aggregating search results from a variety of heterogeneous sources or verticals such as news, image and video into a single interface is a popular paradigm in web search. Although...
