Scouting Context-Sensitive Components

Nature’s gadgets are implemented without being planned and therefore can utilize context-sensitive components. Thus functionality that would require extensive networks of context-free components can be elicited from a minimum of material. Proteins can serve as contextsensitive components for pattern processing applications. We here describe an evolutionary search strategy currently under invest...

Improving Evolutionary Algorithms with Scouting

The goal of an Evolutionary Algorithm(EA) is to find the optimal solution to a given problem by evolving a set of initial potential solutions. When the problem is multi-modal, an EA will often become trapped in a suboptimal solution(premature convergence). The ScoutingInspired Evolutionary Algorithm(SEA) is a relatively new technique that avoids premature convergence by determining whether a su...

Talent scouting in P2P networks

Please cite this article in press as: N. Koeni j.comnet.2011.10.021 Record labels would like to identify potential artists as early as possible in their career, before other companies approach the artists with competing contracts. However, there is a huge number of new artists, and the process of identifying the ones with high success potential is labor intensive. This paper demonstrates how da...

The eagle is landing: Eagle syndrome--an important differential diagnosis.

British Journal of General Practice, September 2012 501 CASE REPORT A 35-year-old woman presented in the accident and emergency department with a 2-day history of right-sided Horner’s syndrome. She had been seeing her GP over the last few months with right-sided neck pain, often brought on by chewing, and occasional tinnitus and dizziness, for which no cause had been found. Physical examination...
