Linearity tests are randomized algorithms which have oracle access to the truth table of some function f, and are supposed to distinguish between linear functions and functions whi...
Continuous GRASP (C-GRASP) is a stochastic local search metaheuristic for finding cost-efficient solutions to continuous global optimization problems subject to box constraints (Hi...

We present a method for initialising the K-means clustering algorithm. Our method hinges on the use of a kd-tree to perform a density estimation of the data at various locations. ...
The existence of optimal algorithms is not known for any decision problem in NP \ P. We consider the problem of testing the membership in the image of an injective function. We co...
