Many instances of NP-hard problems can be solved efficiently if the treewidth of their corresponding graph is small. Finding the optimal tree decompositions is an NP-hard problem a...
Abstract. The adaptive noise mechanism was introduced in Novelty+ to automatically adapt noise settings during the search [4]. The local search algorithm G2 WSAT deterministically ...
In this paper we address a well-known facility location problem (FLP) in a sensor network environment. The problem deals with finding the optimal way to provide service to a (poss...
Abstract. In this paper, we study the behaviour of the Scaling and Probabilistic Smoothing (SAPS) dynamic local search algorithm on the unweighted MAXSAT problem. MAX-SAT is a conc...
We consider the problem of constructing randomness extractors that are locally computable; that is, read only a small number of bits from their input. As recently shown by Lu (thi...
