It has recently been shown, for the Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP), that the state associated with a node of the search tree built by a backtracking algorithm can be exploit...
Motivation: Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs)--functional RNA molecules not coding for proteins--are grouped into hundreds of families of homologs. To find new members of an ncRNA gene fam...
Dealing with numerical information is practically important in many real-world planning domains where the executability of an action can depend on certain numerical conditions, an...
Phylogenetics is concerned with inferring the genealogical relationships between a group of organisms (or taxa), and this relationship is usually expressed as an evolutionary tree....
The Cross Entropy algorithm is a new search method for combinatorial problem. However, it needs considerable computational time to achieve good solution quality. To make the Cross...
