We consider the search for a maximum likelihood assignment of hidden derivations and grammar weights for a probabilistic context-free grammar, the problem approximately solved by ...
This paper focuses on a task allocation problem, particularly in cases where the task is to find a solution to a search problem or a constraint satisfaction problem. If the searc...
Adaptive Memetic Algorithms couple an evolutionary algorithm with a number of local search heuristics for improving the evolving solutions. They are part of a broad family of meta...
This paper is motivated by the problem of poor searching efficiency in decentralized peer-to-peer file-sharing systems. We solve the searching problem by considering and modeling t...

We present an improved sweep metaheuristic for discrete event simulation optimization. The sweep algorithm is a tree search similar to beam search. The basic idea is to run a limi...
