Background: Cluster analysis has been widely applied for investigating structure in bio-molecular data. A drawback of most clustering algorithms is that they cannot automatically ...
Algorithms based on local search are popular for solving many optimization problems including the maximum satisfiability problem (MAXSAT). With regard to MAXSAT, the state of the ...
A family of permutations in Sn is k-wise independent if a uniform permutation chosen from the family maps any distinct k elements to any distinct k elements equally likely. Effici...
It is widely assumed and observed in experiments that the use of diversity mechanisms in evolutionary algorithms may have a great impact on its running time. Up to now there is no...
