Sara Silva research published in IEEE Transactions on Evolutionary Computation
LASIGE integrated researcher Sara Silva, together with researchers from NOVA IMS, Ines Magessi and Leonardo Vanneschi, developed two new Genetic Programming selection methods that prevent overfitting by minimising both the training error and the functional complexity of the evolved models in a pseudo-multiobjective fashion. Both methods rely on an improved version of the Slope-Based Complexity […]
ArchiveChain project featured in Tek Notícias
Bernardo Ferreira, an integrated researcher at LASIGE and a member of the ArchiveChain team, explained to TEK Notícias how the project originated and how the blockchain operates. The blockchain uses pages from Arquivo.pt as a kind of “fuel”, which ultimately contributes to the preservation of the history of the Portuguese web. ArchiveChain aims to establish a […]
