In data mining, searching for frequent patterns is a common basic operation. It forms the basis of many interesting decision support processes. In this paper we present a new type ...
We present a new conceptual abstraction in symmetry breaking – the GE-tree. The construction and traversal of a GE-tree breaks all symmetries in any constraint satisfaction or si...

The decomposition of complex systems into manageable parts is an essential principle when dealing with complex technical systems. However, many safety and reliability modelling te...
This paper proposes a new method for searching two-valued (binary) game trees in games like chess or Go. Lambda-search uses null-moves together with different orders of threat-sequ...
Binary decision trees based on univariate splits have traditionally employed so-called impurity functions as a means of searching for the best node splits. Such functions use estim...
