: A local search algorithm operating on an instance of a Boolean constraint satisfaction problem (in particular, k-SAT) can be viewed as a stochastic process traversing successive ...
A modification of the standard Simulated Annealing (SA) algorithm is presented for finding the global minimum of a continuous multidimensional, multimodal function. We report resu...
To efficiently find global patterns from a multi-database, information in each local database must first be mined and summarized at the local level. Then only the summarized infor...
Ahlswede and Winter [AW02] introduced a Chernoff bound for matrix-valued random variables, which is a non-trivial generalization of the usual Chernoff bound for real-valued random...
