GSAT is a randomized greedy local repair procedure that was introduced for solving propositional satis ability and constraint satisfaction problems. We present an improvement to G...
Given a connected, weighted, undirected graph G and a bound D, the bounded-diameter minimum spanning tree problem seeks a spanning tree on G of lowest weight in which no path betw...
In genetic programming, the reproductive operators of crossover and mutation both require the selection of nodes from the reproducing individuals. Both unbiased random selection a...
We propose a sequential randomized algorithm, which at each step concentrates on functions having both low risk and low variance with respect to the previous step prediction functi...
We establish the first nontrivial lower bounds on timespace tradeoffs for the selection problem. We prove that any comparison-based randomized algorithm for finding the median ...
