High Performance Data Mining - Scaling Algorithms, Applications and Systems

Springer, 2000

This special issue of Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery addresses the issue of scaling data mining algorithms, applications and systems to massive data sets by applying high performance computing technology. With the commoditization of high performance computing using clusters of workstations and related technologies, it is becoming more and more...

Puzzles for Programmers and Pros

Wrox Press, 2007

Solving puzzles demands a mindset that starts with a vulnerable openness followed by a rigorous drive to find a solution. Whether you're preparing for a programming job interview or just like a challenge, this book takes you on a tour of problem-solving techniques so you can dramatically improve your skills. You'll learn how to conquer simple...

Evolutionary Computation in Bioinformatics

Morgan Kaufmann, 2002

Bioinformatics has never been as popular as it is today. The genomics revolution is generating so much data in such rapid succession that it has become difficult for biologists to decipher. In particular, there are many problems in biology that are too large to solve with standard methods. Researchers in evolutionary computation (EC) have turned...

Creative Evolutionary Systems (With CD-ROM)

Morgan Kaufmann, 2001

This volume shows the current state of the art, and the science, of evolutionary creativity. It shows what can--and equally important, what can't--be done at the turn of the new millennium. What will have been achieved by the turn of the next one is anyone's guess. Meanwhile, it's intriguing, it's instructive, it's difficult, and it's fun!...

Pixelization Paradigm: Visual Information Expert Workshop, VIEW 2006, Paris, France, April 24-25, 2006, Revised Selected Papers

Springer, 2007

We propose in this paper an outline of Pixelization Paradigm formalization. The aim of this approach is both theoretic and applied.

Theoretic by the way we believe in the heuristic value of theoretical approach: it is well known that generalizing a theory allows on the one hand enlarging the application field of this theory and on the...

Theoretical Aspects of Local Search (Monographs in Theoretical Computer Science. An EATCS Series)

Springer, 2007

In 1958 Croes published a twenty page article in Operations Research describing a new method to handle traveling salesman problems based on the iterative use of simple edge-exchange mechanisms. This article can be seen as the seminal paper on local search, reporting for the first time the success of simple neighborhood-based iteration methods when...

Artificial Intelligence for Advanced Problem Solving Techniques

Information Science Publishing, 2008

One of the most important functions of artificial intelligence, automated problem solving, consists mainly of the development of software systems designed to find solutions to problems. These systems utilize a search space and algorithms in order to reach a solution.

Artificial Intelligence for Advanced Problem Solving...
