Optimal Anytime Constrained Simulated Annealing for Constrained Global Optimization
Abstract. In this paper we propose an optimal anytime version of constrained simulated annealing (CSA) for solving constrained nonlinear programming problems (NLPs). One of the goa...

The ROOTS Constraint
A wide range of counting and occurrence constraints can be specified with just two global primitives: the Range constraint, which computes the range of values used by a sequence of...

The approximability of MAX CSP with fixed-value constraints
In the maximum constraint satisfaction problem (Max CSP), one is given a finite collection of (possibly weighted) constraints on overlapping sets of variables, and the goal is to ...

Inapproximability of Hypergraph Vertex Cover and Applications to Scheduling Problems
Assuming the Unique Games Conjecture (UGC), we show optimal inapproximability results for two classic scheduling problems. We obtain a hardness of 2 − ε for the problem of mini...

Hot Event Detection and Summarization by Graph Modeling and Matching
This paper proposes a new approach for hot event detection and summarization of news videos. The approach is mainly based on two graph algorithms: optimal matching (OM) and normali...
