Function approximation approach to the inference of reduced NGnet models of genetic networks
Background: The inference of a genetic network is a problem in which mutual interactions among genes are deduced using time-series of gene expression patterns. While a number of m...

A framework for evolutionary optimization with approximate fitness functions
It is not unusual that an approximate model is needed for fitness evaluation in evolutionary computation. In this case, the convergence properties of the evolutionary algorithm are...

Approximability and Nonapproximability Results for Minimizing Total Flow Time on a Single Machine
We consider the problem of scheduling n jobs that are released over time on a single machine in order to minimize the total ow time. This problem is well-known to be NPcomplete, a...
