Small-bias, or -biased, spaces have found many applications in complexity theory, coding theory, and derandomization. We generalize the notion of small-bias spaces to the setting ...
Forma analysis provides an approach to formally derive domain specific operators based on domain-independent operator templates by manipulating a set of equivalence relations (i....
Geometric particle swarm optimization (GPSO) is a recently introduced generalization of traditional particle swarm optimization (PSO) that applies to all combinatorial spaces. The...
—This paper presents a new cooperative coevolving particle swarm optimization (CCPSO) algorithm in an attempt to address the issue of scaling up particle swarm optimization (PSO)...
Graph H is a root of graph G if there exists a positive integer k such that x and y are adjacent in G if and only if their distance in H is at most k. Motwani and Sudan [1994] prov...
