Boosting the Performance of a Multiobjective Algorithm to Design RBFNNs Through Parallelization (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Guillen, A., Rojas, I., Gonzalez, J., Pomares, H., Herrera, L. J., & Paechter, B. (2007, April). Boosting the Performance of a Multiobjective Algorithm to Design RBFNNs Through Parallelization. Presented at ICANNGA: International Conference on Adaptive and Natural Computing Algorithms, Warsaw, Poland

Radial Basis Function Neural Networks (RBFNNs) have been widely used to solve classification and regression tasks providing satisfactory results. The main issue when working with RBFNNs is how to design them because this task requires the optimizatio...

Empirical Validation of a Gossiping Communication Mechanism for Parallel EAs (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Laredo, J. L. J., Castillo, P. A., Paechter, B., Mora, A. M., Alfaro-Cid, E., Esparcia-Alcazar, A. I., & Merelo, J. J. (2007, December). Empirical Validation of a Gossiping Communication Mechanism for Parallel EAs. Presented at EvoWorkshops: Workshops on Applications of Evolutionary Computation

The development of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems is still a challenge due to the huge number of factors involved. Validation of these systems must be defined in terms of describing the adequacy of the P2P model to the actual environment. This paper focu...

An Immune-Inspired Approach to Speckled Computing (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Davoudani, D., Hart, E., & Paechter, B. (2007, August). An Immune-Inspired Approach to Speckled Computing. Presented at International Conference on Artificial Immune Systems ICARIS 2007, Beijing, China

Speckled Computing offers a radically new concept in information technology that has the potential to revolutionise the way we communicate and exchange information. Specks — minute, autonomous, semi-conductor grains that can sense and compute locally... Read More about An Immune-Inspired Approach to Speckled Computing.

Revisiting the Central and Peripheral Immune System (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
McEwan, C., Hart, E., & Paechter, B. (2007, August). Revisiting the Central and Peripheral Immune System. Presented at ICARIS 2007: International Conference on Artificial Immune Systems, Santos, Brazil

The idiotypic network has a long and chequered history in both theoretical immunology and Artificial Immune Systems. In terms of the latter, the drive for engineering applications has led to a diluted interpretation of the immunological models. Resea...

Finding feasible timetables using group-based operators. (2007)
Journal Article
Lewis, R. M. R., & Paechter, B. (2007). Finding feasible timetables using group-based operators. IEEE Transactions on Evolutionary Computation, 11, 397-413. https://doi.org/10.1109/TEVC.2006.885162

This paper describes the applicability of the so-called "grouping genetic algorithm" to a well-known version of the university course timetabling problem. We note that there are, in fact, various scaling up issues surrounding this sort of algorithm a... Read More about Finding feasible timetables using group-based operators..

Metaheuristics for university course timetabling. (2007)
Book Chapter
Lewis, R. M. R., Paechter, B., & Rossi-Doria, O. (2007). Metaheuristics for university course timetabling. In K. Dahal, K. Chen Tan, & P. Cowling (Eds.), Evolutionary Scheduling (237-272). Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-48584-1_9

In this chapter we consider the NP-complete problem of university course timetabling. We note that it is often difficult to gain a deep understanding of these sorts of problems due to the fact that so many different types of constraints can ultima...
