In H.264/AVC [1], integer transforms are applied instead of the 8×8 discrete cosine transform (DCT) of previous standards to avoid inverse transform mismatch problems. However, th...
This paper focuses on the computation time of evolutionary algorithms. First, some exact expressions of the mean first hitting times of general evolutionary algorithms in finite...
Estimation of distribution algorithms (EDAs) try to solve an optimization problem by finding a probability distribution focussed around its optima. For this purpose they conduct ...
In reinforcement learning problems it has been considered that neither exploitation nor exploration can be pursued exclusively without failing at the task. The optimal balance bet...
We hypothesize that the relationship between parameter settings, specically parameters controlling mutation, and performance is non-linear in genetic programs. Genetic programmin...
