Real-coded crossover as a role of kernel density estimation
This paper presents a kernel density estimation method by means of real-coded crossovers. Estimation of density algorithms (EDAs) are evolutionary optimization techniques, which d...

Closed Timelike Curves Make Quantum and Classical Computing Equivalent
While closed timelike curves (CTCs) are not known to exist, studying their consequences has led to nontrivial insights in general relativity, quantum information, and other areas....

Probabilistic Data Exchange
The work reported here lays the foundations of data exchange in the presence of probabilistic data. This requires rethinking the very basic concepts of traditional data exchange, ...

Approximate Probabilistic Constraints and Risk-Sensitive Optimization Criteria in Markov Decision Processes
The majority of the work in the area of Markov decision processes has focused on expected values of rewards in the objective function and expected costs in the constraints. Althou...

If NP Languages are Hard on the Worst-Case, Then it is Easy to Find Their Hard Instances
We prove that if NP ⊆ BPP, i.e., if SAT is worst-case hard, then for every probabilistic polynomial-time algorithm trying to decide SAT, there exists some polynomially samplable ...
