An introduction and survey of estimation of distribution algorithms

TL;DR: Estimation of distribution algorithms are stochastic optimization techniques that explore the space of potential solutions by building and sampling explicit probabilistic models of promising candidate solutions and many of the different types of EDAs are outlined.

Insights on Transfer Optimization: Because Experience is the Best Teacher

TL;DR: A general formalization of transfer optimization is introduced, based on which the conceptual realizations of the paradigm are classified into three distinct categories, namely sequential transfer , multitasking, and multiform optimization.

2009 Special Issue: Intelligence in the brain: A theory of how it works and how to build it

TL;DR: A theory of how general-purpose learning-based intelligence is achieved in the mammal brain, and how to replicate it is presented, and empirical results which fit the theory are reviewed, and important new directions for research are suggested.

Generalized decomposition and cross entropy methods for many-objective optimization

TL;DR: The proposed generalized decomposition algorithm - MACE-gD - is shown to be highly competitive with the existing best-in-class decomposition-based algorithm (MOEA/D) and a more elaborate EDA method (RM-MEDA).

Prediction of road accidents: A Bayesian hierarchical approach

TL;DR: It is shown that the proposed methodology can be used to develop models to estimate the occurrence of road accidents for any road network provided that the required data are available.

Estimating the Dimension of a Model

TL;DR: In this paper, the problem of selecting one of a number of models of different dimensions is treated by finding its Bayes solution, and evaluating the leading terms of its asymptotic expansion.

Probabilistic Reasoning in Intelligent Systems: Networks of Plausible Inference

TL;DR: Probabilistic Reasoning in Intelligent Systems as mentioned in this paper is a complete and accessible account of the theoretical foundations and computational methods that underlie plausible reasoning under uncertainty, and provides a coherent explication of probability as a language for reasoning with partial belief.

The Sciences of the Artificial

TL;DR: A new edition of Simon's classic work on artificial intelligence as mentioned in this paper adds a chapter that sorts out the current themes and tools for analyzing complexity and complex systems, taking into account important advances in cognitive psychology and the science of design while confirming and extending Simon's basic thesis that a physical symbol system has the necessary and sufficient means for intelligent action.

Paper: Modeling by shortest data description

Jorma Rissanen
- 01 Sep 1978 - 
TL;DR: The number of digits it takes to write down an observed sequence x1,...,xN of a time series depends on the model with its parameters that one assumes to have generated the observed data.
