The minimum latency problem (MLP) is a well-studied variant of the traveling salesman problem (TSP). In the MLP, the server's goal is to minimize the average latency that the...
Abstract. This paper presents algorithms whose input is an undirected graph, and whose output is a tree decomposition of width that approximates the optimal, the treewidth of that ...
We present a simple framework for dealing with search spaces consisting of permutations. To demonstrate its usefulness, we build upon it a simple (1 + 1)-evolutionary algorithm fo...
Scaling up document-image classifiers to handle an unlimited variety of document and image types poses serious challenges to conventional trainable classifier technologies. Highly...
Abstract--The rectilinear Steiner tree (RST) problem is of essential importance to the automatic interconnect optimization for VLSI design. In this paper, we present a class of pro...
