Thank you, because thats my solution, my system learns those ques during the learning phase by presenting multi-view training sets like i wrote earlier.

Don't worry i'm not like that, i also enjoy discussing with people of similar interest, besides there are'nt many daredevil's to go down this path, it's gud to always hear from people like you. i wish you luck in your endeavor.

I would assume yes because I've never seen anything written on that subject. So you are probably right that it is possible, but I still suspected it will learn faster with 3D.

Yeah but that's the point I was making earlier. Without some preexisting method for judging distances you have nothing to use as a measuring stick when your system would learn those cues. That's why people born blind in one eye don't learn those cues, because they cannot use stereopsis as a measuring stick. They have no way to see how things like for instance the size of an object corresponds with it's distance from the viewer because they never actually know how far the object is from them.

According to wikipedia "Stereopsis appears to be processed in the visual cortex in binocular cells having receptive fields in different horizontal positions in the two eyes. Such a cell is active only when its preferred stimulus is in the correct position in the left eye and in the correct position in the right eye, making it a disparity detector." you are right 3d vision is useful, i will consider using two cameras,but i will start with a single camera then move to 3d implementation this will enable my system to take advantage of both worlds, thanks for the advice. I thought through this and realised that i left stereopsis out but now i have considered using it, i have found that there is room for it in my vision system, i do'nt have to modify the whole library but just add additional functions to support stereopsis, thanks again for stereopsis.

i can't fully agree with you, look at chess, can you beat a computer at it's highest skill level, i don't think so! the problem with machines of today is that they just lack perceptual skills or what is called sensory perception, they are given buttons for people to push rather than a complex sensing device. And the belief among humans that there is no such a thing as artificial intelligence discourages researchers. Remember people in the old days thought that people will never fly but we have very heavy man-made machines called planes that can fly. all we need is a break through especially in machine perception to have everybodies jaw dropped.

That's only cause computers can look at millions or even billions of times as many moves as a human can. It's actual understanding of the game is extremely weak. Look at some other games where brute force methods are less practical. Go and Arimaa are good examples. There was even a million dollar prize offered if anyone could write a good Go program by the year 2000 and nobody collected it http://senseis.xmp.net/?IngPrize[^] and there is currently a prize for Arimaa http://arimaa.com/arimaa/[^]
IBM's watson was much more impressive http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=watson&aq=f[^] but even it is only a souped up search engine, it doesn't really understand the words it's talking about it just looks at how words are used together.

I totally agree with you. True AI will never happen till the AI actually understands the meaning of the words it is talking about.

Then we definately need better solutions, i have also realised that computer processing power has increased drastically but algorithms have'nt gotten smarter but just running on powerful cpu's makes them appear smart, this is definately disappointing.

It happens to be that "GrandEyeOsity" also sounds like "Grandiosity" which is not a good moniker,and by stating that i have designed a computer-vision system capable of out-performing current state of the art systems does'nt mean i did not re-use some of the earlier ideas, you should know that i did not have to re-invent the wheel, but to look at what the other researchers have missed-out or overlooked which happens to be ground-breaking. If you are a true developer, you should be able to understand what research and development means. What others have failed to achieve, i have managed, simple as that and no nicknames please!

I doubt that a cat qualifies as the simplest animal I can think of; besides, if they had such a simple visual system, they wouldn't probably be the formidable predators that they are....

You are right cats are not the simplest animals. But "simple" in this context is a relative measure (let's say relative to computer/machine vision potential) and that computers of today are capable of running a vision system advanced enough to make a cat look like a cockroach but no such vision system exists because there are'nt many efforts to do that as many people like doing the easy stuff.

Just like the title says, is there any particular way to increase the efficiency or speed of genetic algorithm?
Right now I'm designing a Ship parking scheduler? (I dunno what should I named it with). Basically, There's 5 or more dock and a bunch of ships, and I have to find the best combination (each ship have different length and park-cost).
Excuse me for my improper grammar and typos.
It's because English is my primary language, not my first language.
My first languages are C# and Java.
VB, ASP, JS, PHP and SQL are my second language.
Indonesian came as my third language.
My fourth language? I'm still creating it, I'll let you know when it's done!

The surest way to improve a genetic algorithm's performance is to increase the population size, but this also takes more time.
You could try increasing the selection bias for the following generation, e.g. weight your evaluation function so that the most-fit schedules have a probability of being selected 5X the less-fit schedules. This will result in the following generation having a higher proportion of more-fit genes, which will converge faster.

That doesn't really sound like an ideal problem for a GA to me, unless what you're evolving is the metadata that seeds the algorithm that chooses which ships to take next. Too many of the mutations or crossovers will result in invalid parking configurations if you're trying to map genes directly to ships.
A GA is generally a tradeoff between variety and speed. You can make it go faster by having a smaller population, or by stronger selection pressure (more brutally killing off lower fitness solutions), but in either case you are reducing the gene pool and might therefore miss the variety you need to jump out of a local minimum.

DockSnug
SnugDock
PentaDock
=> absurd category :

In all of the above, consider omitting the letter "k" from "dock."

I have a datatable like below
<pre lang="text">
Employee Salary
--------------------------
Emp A 1000
Emp B 500
Emp C 3000
Emp D 3000
Emp E 200
Emp F 100
Emp G 200
Emp H 500
Emp I 1450</pre>
I want minimum number of groups, Sum of Salary in one group should not exceed 5000. So my final output should be like this
<pre lang="text">
Employee Salary Group
-------------------------------------
Emp A 1000 Group 1
Emp B 500 Group 1
Emp C 3000 Group 1
Emp E 200 Group 1
Emp F 100 Group 1
Emp G 200 Group 1
Emp D 3000 Group 2
Emp H 500 Group 2
Emp I 1450 Group 2
</pre>
