A Memetic Cooperative Co-evolution Model for Large Scale Continuous Optimization
Cooperative co-evolution (CC) is a framework that can be used to ‘scale up’ EAs to solve high dimensional optimization problems. This approach employs a divide and conquer strategy, which decomposes a high dim...

Cable Function Analysis for the Musculoskeletal Static Workspace of a Human Shoulder
The study of cable function allows the particular cables towards generation of to determined for cable-driven manipulators (CDPMs). This study is fundamental in the understanding of the arrangement o...

The Algorithm Selection Problem on the Continuous Optimization Domain
The problem of algorithm selection, that is identifying the most efficient algorithm for a given computational task, is non-trivial. Meta-learning techniques have been used successfully for this problem in par...

On the Task Specific Evaluation and Optimisation of Cable-Driven Manipulators
Cable-driven manipulators are traditionally designed for general performance objectives, such as maximisation of workspace. To take advantage of the reconfigurability of cable-driven mechanisms, the optimisati...

A Meta-learning Prediction Model of Algorithm Performance for Continuous Optimization Problems
Algorithm selection and configuration is a challenging problem in the continuous optimization domain. An approach to tackle this problem is to develop a model that links landscape analysis measures and algorit...

Dynamic Self-Organising Maps: Theory, Methods and Applications
In an effort to counter the restrictions enforced by the fixed map size and aspect ratio of a Kohonen Self-Organising Map, many variants to the method have been proposed. As a recent development, the Dynamic S...

Information Theoretic Classification of Problems for Metaheuristics
This paper proposes a model for metaheuristic research which recognises the need to match algorithms to problems. An empirical approach to producing a map** from problems to algorithms is presented. This map...

Semi-supervised Learning of Dynamic Self-Organising Maps
We present a semi-supervised learning method for the Growing Self-Organising Maps (GSOM) that allows fast visualisation of data class structure on the 2D network. Instead of discarding data with missing values...

Mining of Labeled Incomplete Data Using Fast Dimension Partitioning
Two Dimensional Partitioning Techniques are proposed in this paper for fast mining of labeled data with missing values. The first Dimensional Partitioning Technique (DPT1) generates a classifier model by the u...
