Parameterized Learning Complexity
We describe three applications in computational learning theory of techniques and ideas recently introduced in the study of parameterized computational complexity. (1) Using param...

Fixed-parameter tractability, definability, and model checking
In this article, we study parameterized complexity theory from the perspective of logic, or more specifically, descriptive complexity theory. We propose to consider parameterized ...

Tight Lower Bounds for Certain Parameterized NP-Hard Problems
Based on the framework of parameterized complexity theory, we derive tight lower bounds on the computational complexity for a number of well-known NP-hard problems. We start by pr...

Finding Consistent Categorial Grammars of Bounded Value: A Parameterized Approach
Abstract. Kanazawa ([1]) has studied the learnability of several parameterized families of classes of categorial grammars. These classes were shown to be learnable from text, in th...

Fixed-parameter evolutionary algorithms and the vertex cover problem
In this paper, we consider multi-objective evolutionary algorithms for the Vertex Cover problem in the context of parameterized complexity. We relate the runtime of our algorithms...
