Conservation of information (COI) popularized by the no free lunch theorem is a great leveler of search algorithms, showing that on average no search outperforms any other. Yet in ...
Many real-world problems are characterized by complex relational structure, which can be succinctly represented in firstorder logic. However, many relational inference algorithms ...
The complexity of numerical domain partitioning depends on the number of potential cut points. In multiway partitioning this dependency is often quadratic, even exponential. There...
In our study of the extremities of a graph, we define a moplex as a maximal clique module the neighborhood of which is a minimal separator of the graph. This notion enables us to...
This paper contains a new convergence analysis for the Lewis and Torczon generalized pattern search (GPS) class of methods for unconstrained and linearly constrained optimization. ...
