Improving Model Accuracy for Imbalanced Image Classification Tasks by Adding a Final Batch Normalization Layer: An Empirical Study
Veysel Kocaman, Ofer M. Shir, Thomas Bäck
Some real-world domains, such as Agriculture and Healthcare, comprise early-stage disease indications whose recording constitutes a rare event, and yet, whose precise detection at…
A Modular Hybridization of Particle Swarm Optimization and Differential Evolution
Rick Boks, Hao Wang, Thomas Bäck
In swarm intelligence, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Differential Evolution (DE) have been successfully applied in many optimization tasks, and a large number of variants,…
Discovering outstanding subgroup lists for numeric targets using MDL
Hugo M. Proença, Peter Grünwald, Thomas Bäck +1
The task of subgroup discovery (SD) is to find interpretable descriptions of subsets of a dataset that stand out with respect to a target attribute. To address the problem of minin…
Towards Dynamic Algorithm Selection for Numerical Black-Box Optimization: Investigating BBOB as a Use Case
Diederick Vermetten, Hao Wang, Carola Doerr +1
One of the most challenging problems in evolutionary computation is to select from its family of diverse solvers one that performs well on a given problem. This algorithm selection…
Benchmarking a Genetic Algorithm with Configurable Crossover Probability
Furong Ye, Hao Wang, Carola Doerr +1
We investigate a family of Genetic Algorithms (GAs) which creates offspring either from mutation or by recombining two randomly chosen parents. By scaling the crossover pro…
A Tailored NSGA-III Instantiation for Flexible Job Shop Scheduling
Yali Wang, Bas van Stein, Michael T. M. Emmerich +1
A customized multi-objective evolutionary algorithm (MOEA) is proposed for the multi-objective flexible job shop scheduling problem (FJSP). It uses smart initialization approaches…
