Guided by the goal of obtaining an optimization algorithm that is both fast and yields good generalization, we study the descent direction maximizing the decrease in generalizatio...

An increase in the performance of deteriorating systems can be achieved through the adoption of suitable maintenance policies. One of the most popular maintenance policies is the ...
Genetic algorithms (GAs) used in complex optimization domains usually need to perform a large number of fitness function evaluations in order to get near-optimal solutions. In rea...
We consider BioAmbients, a calculus for specifying biological entities and for simulating and analysing their behaviour. We extend BioAmbients to take quantitative information into...
When the transition probabilities and rewards of a Markov Decision Process are specified exactly, the problem can be solved without any interaction with the environment. When no s...
