Hybridising heuristics within an estimation distribution algorithm for examination timetabling
This paper presents a hybrid hyper-heuristic approach based on estimation distribution algorithms. The main motivation is to raise the level of generality for search methodologies. The objective of the hyper-h...

A Symbolic Approach to Compute a Null-Space Basis in the Projection Method
We present a hybrid symbolic-numeric approach for the so-called projection method for solving the parameterized differential-algebraic constraint equations associated with multibody mechanical systems. A prima...

Linear combinations of heuristics for examination timetabling
Although they are simple techniques from the early days of timetabling research, graph colouring heuristics are still attracting significant research interest in the timetabling research community. These heuri...

Robust Dynamic Human Activity Recognition Based on Relative Energy Allocation
This paper develops an algorithm for robust human activity recognition in the face of imprecise sensor placement. It is motivated by the emerging body sensor networks that monitor human activities (as opposed to ...
