We propose an efficient method that applies directed soft arc consistency to a Distributed Constraint Optimization Problem (DCOP) which is a fundamental framework of multi-agent ...
In constraint-based mining, the monotone and antimonotone properties are exploited to reduce the search space. Even if a constraint has not such suitable properties, existing algo...
In this paper, a new class of audio representations is introduced, together with a corresponding fast decomposition algorithm. The main feature of these representations is that th...
This paper proposes a novel recombination scheme for evolutionary algorithms, which can guide the new population generation towards the maximum increase of the objective function....
Abstract. An (α, β)-spanner of a graph G is a subgraph H that approximates distances in G within a multiplicative factor α and an additive error β, ensuring that for any two no...
