Optimizing through Co-evolutionary Avalanches
Abstract. We explore a new general-purpose heuristic for nding highquality solutions to hard optimization problems. The method, called extremal optimization, is inspired by self-or...

A Development Framework for Rapid Meta-Heuristics Hybridization
While meta-heuristics are effective for solving large-scale combinatorial optimization problems, they result from time-consuming trial-and-error algorithm design tailored to speci...

The Exponentiated Subgradient Algorithm for Heuristic Boolean Programming
Boolean linear programs (BLPs) are ubiquitous in AI. Satisfiability testing, planning with resource constraints, and winner determination in combinatorial auctions are all example...

Faster Generation of Random Spanning Trees
In this paper, we set forth a new algorithm for generating approximately uniformly random spanning trees in undirected graphs. We show how to sample from a distribution that is wi...

A Dichotomy Theorem for Constraints on a Three-Element Set
The Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) provides a common framework for many combinatorial problems. The general CSP is known to be NP-complete; however, certain restrictions on...
