In this paper we analyze O’Hara’s partition bijection. We present three type of results. First, we show that O’Hara’s bijection can be viewed geometrically as a certain sci...
—Univariate Marginal Distribution Algorithms (UMDAs) are a kind of Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) which do not consider the dependencies among the variables. In thi...
We present and analyse a Monte-Carlo algorithm to compute the minimal polynomial of an n × n matrix over a finite field that requires O(n3 ) field operations and O(n) random v...
We take a new look at the convex path recoloring (CPR), convex tree recoloring (CTR), and convex leaf recoloring (CLR) problems through the eyes of the independent set problem. Th...
ngly better objective function value until an optimal solution is reached. From an abstract point of view, an augmentation problem is solved in each iteration. That is, given a fea...
