We apply the dead-end elimination (DEE) strategy from protein design as a heuristic for the max-flow/min-cut formulation of the image segmentation problem. DEE combines aspects of...
In this paper we present and evaluate uncoordinated on-line algorithms for simultaneous storage and replication load-balancing in DHT-based peer-to-peer systems. We compare our ap...
Structured data represented in the form of graphs arises in several fields of the science and the growing amount of available data makes distributed graph mining techniques partic...
Abstract. The paper presents a new look-ahead scheme for backtracking search for solving constraint satisfaction problems. This look-ahead scheme computes a heuristic for value ord...
Meta-heuristics such as simulated annealing, genetic algorithms and tabu search have been successfully applied to many difficult optimization problems for which no satisfactory pro...
