The Traveling Beams Optical Solutions for Bounded NP-Complete Problems
Architectures for optical processors designed to solve bounded instances of NP-Complete problems are suggested. One approach mimics the traveling salesman by traveling beams that ...

Approximating Maximum Weight Cycle Covers in Directed Graphs with Weights Zero and One
A cycle cover of a graph is a spanning subgraph each node of which is part of exactly one simple cycle. A k-cycle cover is a cycle cover where each cycle has length at least k. Gi...

Lower Bounds for Maximum Parsimony with Gene Order Data
Abstract. In this paper, we study lower bound techniques for branchand-bound algorithms for maximum parsimony, with a focus on gene order data. We give a simple O(n3 ) time dynamic...

Ant-Q: A Reinforcement Learning Approach to the Traveling Salesman Problem
In this paper we introduce Ant-Q, a family of algorithms which present many similarities with Q-learning (Watkins, 1989), and which we apply to the solution of symmetric and asymm...
