We study three new techniques which will speed up the branch-and-bound algorithm for the MAX-2-SAT problem: The first technique is a new lower bound function for the algorithm an...
Abstract. The NP-complete Distinguishing Substring Selection problem (DSSS for short) asks, given a set of “good” strings and a set of “bad” strings, for a solution string ...
The fast messy genetic algorithm (fmGA) belongs to a class of algorithms inspired by the principles of evolution, known appropriately as "evolutionary algorithms" (EAs)....

: Sequential algorithms given by Angluin 1987 and Schapire 1992 learn deterministic nite automata DFA exactly from Membership and Equivalence queries. These algorithms are feasible...
An edge dominating set for a graph G is a set D of edges such that each edge of G is in D or adjacent to at least one edge in D. This work studies deterministic distributed approx...
