Exact/Heuristic Hybrids Using rVNS and Hyperheuristics for Workforce Scheduling
In this paper we study a complex real-world workforce scheduling problem. We propose a method of splitting the problem into smaller parts and solving each part using exhaustive sea...

Using the Context-enhanced Additive Heuristic for Temporal and Numeric Planning
Planning systems for real-world applications need the ability to handle concurrency and numeric fluents. Nevertheless, the predominant approach to cope with concurrency followed b...

Using F0 to constrain the unit selection Viterbi network
The goal of the work described here is to limit the computation needed in unit selection Viterbi search for text-to-speech synthesis. The broader goal is to improve speech quality...

Finding Good Starting Points for Solving Structured and Unstructured Nonlinear Constrained Optimization Problems
In this paper, we develop heuristics for finding good starting points when solving large-scale nonlinear constrained optimization problems (COPs). We focus on nonlinear programmi...
