Collisions are helpful for computing unique input-output sequences
Computing unique input-output sequences (UIOs) from finite state machines (FSMs) is important for conformance testing in software engineering, where evolutionary algorithms (EAs)...

Evolution of reward functions for reinforcement learning
The reward functions that drive reinforcement learning systems are generally derived directly from the descriptions of the problems that the systems are being used to solve. In so...

Steiner Transitive-Closure Spanners of Low-Dimensional Posets
Given a directed graph G = (V, E) and an integer k ≥ 1, a Steiner k-transitive-closure-spanner (Steiner k-TC-spanner) of G is a directed graph H = (VH , EH ) such that (1) V ⊆ ...

Numerical solution of linear Volterra integral equations of the second kind with sharp gradients
Collocation methods are a well developed approach for the numerical solution of smooth and weakly-singular Volterra integral equations. In this paper we extend these methods, thro...
