To Fill or Not to Fill: The Gas Station Problem
In this paper we study several routing problems that generalize shortest paths and the Traveling Salesman Problem. We consider a more general model that incorporates the actual co...

How Are We Doing? Predicting Evolutionary Algorithm Performance
Abstract. Given an evolutionary algorithm for a problem and an instance of the problem, the results of several trials of the EA on the instance constitute a sample from the distrib...

A General Approximation Technique for Constrained Forest Problems
We present a general approximation technique for a large class of graph problems. Our technique mostly applies to problems of covering, at minimum cost, the vertices of a graph wit...

Greedy-type resistance of combinatorial problems
This paper gives a sufficient condition for a combinatorial problem to be greedy-type-resistant, i.e. such that, on some instances of the problem, any greedy-type algorithm will o...
