The performance of convolutional neural networks (CNN) depends heavily on their architectures. Transfer learning performance of a CNN relies quite strongly on selection of its trainable layers. Selecting the most effective update layers for…

Testing provides means pertaining to assuring software performance. The total aim of software industry is actually to make a certain start associated with high quality software for the end user. However, associated with software testing has…

Surrogate models are used to reduce the burden of expensive-to-evaluate objective functions in optimization. By creating models which map genomes to objective values, these models can estimate the performance of unknown inputs, and so be…

Optimization for deep networks is currently a very active area of research. As neural networks become deeper, the ability in manually optimizing the network becomes harder. Mini-batch normalization, identification of effective respective…

Surface registration is a technique that is used in various areas such as object recognition and 3D model reconstruction. Problem of surface registration can be analyzed as an optimization problem of seeking a rigid motion between two…

We tackle in this paper an online network resource allocation problem with job transfers. The network is composed of many servers connected by communication links. The system operates in discrete time; at each time slot, the administrator…

The use of containers in cloud architectures has become widespread because of advantages such as limited overhead, easier and faster deployment and higher portability. Moreover, they are a suitable architectural solution for deployment of…

Death has long been overlooked in evolutionary algorithms. Recent research has shown that death (when applied properly) can benefit the overall fitness of a population and can outperform sub-sections of a population that are "immortal" when…

Since genetic algorithm was proposed by John Holland (Holland J. H., 1975) in the early 1970s, the study of evolutionary algorithm has emerged as a popular research field (Civicioglu & Besdok, 2013). Researchers from various scientific and…

The design and the implementation of a genetic algorithm are described. The applicability domain is on structure-activity relationships expressed as multiple linear regressions and predictor variables are from families of structure-based…

Hadoop is a popular MapReduce framework for developing parallel applications in distributed environments. Several advantages of MapReduce such as programming ease and ability to use commodity hardware make the applicability of soft…

Software Testing is a process to identify the quality and reliability of software, which can be achieved through the help of proper test data. However, doing this manually is a difficult task due to the presence of number of predicate nodes…

Exact algorithms for learning Bayesian networks guarantee to find provably optimal networks. However, they may fail in difficult learning tasks due to limited time or memory. In this research we adapt several anytime heuristic search-based…

This paper surveys results on complexity of the optimal recombination problem (ORP), which consists in finding the best possible offspring as a result of a recombination operator in a genetic algorithm, given two parent solutions. We…

Plant breeding programs use data obtained from multi-environment selection experiments to produce improved varieties with the ultimate aim of maintaining high levels of genetic gain. Selection accuracy can be improved with the use of…

The advantages of evolutionary algorithms with respect to traditional methods have been greatly discussed in the literature. While particle swarm optimizers share such advantages, they outperform evolutionary algorithms in that they require…

The ability to track the optimum of dynamic environments is important in many practical applications. In this paper, the capability of a hybrid genetic algorithm (HGA) to track the optimum in some dynamic environments is investigated for…

Software testing involves identifying the test cases whichdiscover errors in the program. However, exhaustive testing ofsoftware is very time consuming. In this paper, a technique isproposed to prioritize test case scenarios by identifying…

In real-time trajectory planning for unmanned vehicles, on-board sensors, radars and other instruments are used to collect information on possible obstacles to be avoided and pathways to be followed. Since, in practice, observations of the…

Tasks scheduling is the most challenging problem in the parallel computing. Hence, the inappropriate scheduling will reduce or even abort the utilization of the true potential of the parallelization. Genetic algorithm (GA) has been…
