Multivariate Markov networks for fitness modelling in an estimation of distribution algorithm.
… paradigm for optimisation is the evolutionary algorithm (EA). An EA maintains a population of possible solutions to a problem which converges on a global optimum using biologically-inspired selection and reproduction operators. These algorithms have been shown to perform well on a variety of …

DEUM: a framework for an estimation of distribution algorithm based on Markov random fields.
Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) belong to the class of population based optimisation algorithms. They are motivated by the idea of discovering and exploiting the interaction between variables in the solution. They estimate a probability distribution from population of solutions, and …

Metaheuristics and machine learning for joint stratification and sample allocation in survey design
In this thesis, we propose a number of metaheuristics and machine learning techniques to solve the joint stratification and sample allocation problem. Finding the optimal solution to this problem is hard when the sampling frame is large, and the evaluation algorithm is computationally burdensome. …

Effective and efficient estimation of distribution algorithms for permutation and scheduling problems.
Estimation of Distribution Algorithm (EDA) is a branch of evolutionary computation that learn a probabilistic model of good solutions. Probabilistic models are used to represent relationships between solution variables which may give useful, human-understandable insights into real-world problems. …

Robust Video Object Tracking via Camera Self-calibration
… is proposed, which includes several algorithmic components. (1) An algorithm for joint camera self-calibration and automatic radial distortion correction based on tracking of walking persons is designed to convert multiple object tracking into 3D space. (2) An adaptive model that …
