A topological transformation in evolutionary tree search methods based on maximum likelihood combining p-ECR and neighbor joinin
Background: Inference of evolutionary trees using the maximum likelihood principle is NP-hard. Therefore, all practical methods rely on heuristics. The topological transformations...

Backbone Guided Local Search for Maximum Satisfiability
Maximum satisfiability (Max-SAT) is more general and more difficult to solve than satisfiability (SAT). In this paper, we first investigate the effectiveness of Walksat, one of th...

Experimental Comparison of Greedy Randomized Adaptive Search Procedures for the Maximum Diversity Problem
Abstract. The maximum diversity problem (MDP) consists of identifying optimally diverse subsets of elements from some larger collection. The selection of elements is based on the d...

Tabu search and GRASP for the maximum diversity problem
In this paper, we develop new heuristic procedures for the maximum diversity problem (MDP). This NPhard problem has a significant number of practical applications such as environm...

Parameterized Complexity and Local Search Approaches for the Stable Marriage Problem with Ties
Abstract. We consider the variant of the classical Stable Marriage problem where preference lists can be incomplete and may contain ties. In such a setting, finding a stable matchi...
