The distribution of fitness values across a set of states sharply influences the dynamics of evolutionary processes and heuristic search in combinatorial optimization. In this p...
We consider constructive preference elicitation for decision aid systems in applications such as configuration or electronic catalogs. We are particularly interested in supporting ...
