Abstract. The NValue constraint counts the number of different values assigned to a vector of variables. Propagating generalized arc consistency on this constraint is NP-hard. We ...
This paper presents an ant-based approach for solving the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP). Novel concepts of this algorithm that distinguish it from the other heuristics are the ...
In this paper, we present the application of evolutionary optimization methods to a demanding, industrially relevant engineering domain, the three-dimensional optimization of gas ...
Effects based operations (EBO) is a concept based on the premise that a desired strategic outcome can be achieved through synergistic, multiplicative, and cumulative application ...
Independent component analysis (ICA) has been applied in many fields of signal processing and many ICA learning algorithms have been proposed from different perspectives. However...
