Evolutionary design is an approach that evolves populations of design variants through the iterative application of a set of computational procedures. This paper proposes a template and set of techniques for creating the development and evaluation procedures. The template defines a clear structure for the procedures, while the techniques provide specific strategies for generating models and han...

conventional compression ignition (ci) engines are known for their high thermal efficiency compared to spark ignited (si) engines. gasoline because of its higher ignition delay has much lower soot emission in comparison with diesel fuel. using double injection strategy reduces the maximum heat release rate that leads to nox emission reduction. in this paper, a numerical study of a gasoline fuel...

this paper uses the weighted l$_1-$norm to propose an algorithm for finding a well-dispersed subset of non-dominated solutions of multiple objective mixed integer linear programming problem. when all variables are integer it finds the whole set of efficient solutions. in each iteration of the proposed method only a mixed integer linear programming problem is solved and its optimal solutions gen...

This article develops a unified theoretical and computational framework for false discovery control in multiple testing of spatial signals. We consider both point-wise and cluster-wise spatial analyses, and derive oracle procedures which optimally control the false discovery rate, false discovery exceedance and false cluster rate, respectively. A data-driven finite approximation strategy is dev...

An account of grammatical acquisition is developed within the parameter-setting framework applied to a generalized categorial grammar (GCG). The GCG is embedded in a default inheritance network yielding a natural partial ordering (reeecting generality) of parameters which determines a partial order for parameter setting. Computational simulation shows that several resulting acquisition procedur...

We are interested in the problem faced by an agent with limited compu tational capabilities embedded in a complex environment with other agents and processes not under its control Careful management of computational re sources is important for complex problem solving tasks in which the time spent in decision making a ects the quality of the responses generated by a system This paper describes a...
