Most classical scheduling formulations assume a fixed and known duration for each activity. In this paper, we weaken this assumption, requiring instead that each duration can be ...
Abstract. Dechter et al. [5] proposed solving the Temporal Constraint Satisfaction Problem (TCSP) by modeling it as a metaCSP, which is a finite CSP with a unique global constraint...
Substructure similarity search is to retrieve graphs that approximately contain a given query graph. It has many applications, e.g., detecting similar functions among chemical com...
This paper presents an adaptation of a novel algorithm based on the foraging behavior of honey bees to solve constrained numerical optimization problems. The modifications focus on...
Given a polyhedron P by a list of inequalities we develop unbiased estimates of the number of vertices and bases of P. The estimates are based on applying tree estimation methods ...
