The amount of images contained in repositories or available on Internet has exploded over the last years. In order to retrieve efficiently one or several images in a database, the development of Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) systems has become an intensively active research area. However, most proposed systems are keyword-based and few...

In this paper, we propose a new framework hybridizing a Support Vector Machine (SVM), a Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm (MOGA) and a Locality Sensitive Hashing (LSH). The goal is to tackle fine-grained classification challenges which means classifying many classes with high similarities between classes and poor similarities inside one class....

Multimodal Optimization (MMO) aims at identifying several best solutions to a problem whereas classical optimization converge oftenly to only one good solution. MMO has been an active research area in the past years and several new evolutionary algorithms have been developed to tackle multimodal problems. In this work, we compare extensively...
