LPG is a planner that performed very well in the last International planning competition (2002). The system is based on a stochastic local search procedure, and it incorporates se...
This paper presents a detailed empirical study of local search for Boolean satisfiability (SAT), highlighting several interesting properties, some of which were previously unknown...
Point matching is the task of finding a set of correspondences between two sets of points under some geometric transformation. A local search algorithm for point matching is pres...
Crowding is a technique used in genetic algorithms to preserve diversity in the population and to prevent premature convergence to local optima. It consists of pairing each offsp...
