— One of the major drawbacks of the Hopfield network is that when it is applied to certain polytopes of combinatorial problems, such as the traveling salesman problem (TSP), the...
We study restricted computation models related to the tree evaluation problem. The TEP was introduced in earlier work as a simple candidate for the (very) long term goal of separa...
This paper deals with large-scale crew scheduling problems arising at the Dutch railway operator, Netherlands Railways (NS). We discuss several methods to partition large instances...

A novel multistage feedforward network is proposed for efficient solving of difficult classification tasks. The standard Radial Basis Functions (RBF) architecture is modified in or...
Competent Genetic Algorithms can efficiently address problems in which the linkage between variables is limited to a small order k. Problems with higher order dependencies can onl...
