A flexible neural network (FNN) is a multilayer feedforward neural network with the characteristics of: (1) overlayer connections; (2) variable activation functions for different...
Abstract. Evolution Strategies, Evolutionary Algorithms based on Gaussian mutation and deterministic selection, are today considered the best choice as far as parameter optimizatio...
In empirical studies of Evolutionary Algorithms, it is usually desirable to evaluate and compare algorithms using as many different parameter settings and test problems as possible...
— Distributed computing systems are increasingly being created as self-organizing collections of many autonomous (human or software) agents cooperating as peers. Peer-to-peer coo...
Abstract— The translation of user requirements to system constraints and parameters during an exploration exercise is a hard problem, especially in the context of large scale emb...
