Simplified forms of the particle swarm algorithm are very beneficial in contributing to understanding of what makes a PSO swarm function in the way that it does. One of these form...
We consider probabilistic constrained linear programs with general distributions for the uncertain parameters. These problems generally involve non-convex feasible sets. We develo...
In this survey we attempt to give a unified presentation of a variety of results on the lifting of valid inequalities, as well as a standard procedure combining mixed integer roun...
The minimum distance is one of the most important combinatorial characterizations of a code. The maximum likelihood decoding problem is one of the most important algorithmic proble...
Weighted tree grammars (for short: WTG) are an extension of weighted context-free grammars that generate trees instead of strings. They can be used in natural language parsing to d...
