Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) has been successfully applied to those combinatorial optimization problems which can be translated into a graph exploration. Artificial ants build s...
Identification of Transcription Factor Binding Site (TFBS) motifs in multiple DNA upstream sequences is important in understanding the mechanism of gene regulation. This identific...
The hypergraph matching problem is to find a largest collection of disjoint hyperedges in a hypergraph. This is a well-studied problem in combinatorial optimization and graph theo...
Abstract. Constraint programming based column generation is a hybrid optimization framework recently proposed that uses constraint programming (CP) to solve column generation subpr...
Recent work has shown the promise in using local-search “probes” as a basis for directing a backtracking-based refinement search. In this approach, the decision about the next...
