Symmetry is an important feature of many constraint programs. We show that any symmetry acting on a set of symmetry breaking constraints can be used to break symmetry. Different s...
A significant challenge in genetic programming is premature convergence to local optima, which often prevents evolution from solving problems. This paper introduces to genetic pro...
Evolution of multi-agent teams has been shown to be an effective method of solving complex problems involving the exploration of an unknown problem space. These autonomous and het...

The success of stochastic algorithms is often due to their ability to effectively amplify the performance of search heuristics. This is certainly the case with stochastic sampling ...
A number of bioinformatics tools use regular expression (RE) matching to locate protein or DNA sequence motifs that have been discovered by researchers in the laboratory. For exam...
