چکیده

Recent theory work has suggested that the genetic algorithm (GA) complexity of a problem can be measured by the growth rate of the minimum problem representation [1]. This paper describes a method for evaluating the computational complexity of a problem specifically for a GA. In particular, we show that the GAcomplexity of a problem is determined by the growth rate of the minimum representation as the size of the problem instance increases. This measurement is then applied to evaluate the GA-complexity of two dissimilar problems. Once the GA-complexities of the problems are known, they are then compared to what is already known about the problems' complexities. These results lead to the definition of a new complexity class called "NPG". Future directions for research are then proposed. Key-Words: Complexity, Genetic, Algorithm, GA-complexity

Image Restoration with Two-Dimensional Adaptive Filter Algorithms

Two-dimensional (TD) adaptive filtering is a technique that can be applied to many image, and signal processing applications. This paper extends the one-dimensional adaptive filter algorithms to TD structures and the novel TD adaptive filters are established. Based on this extension, the TD variable step-size normalized least mean squares (TD-VSS-NLMS), the TD-VSS affine projection algorithms (...
