In this paper, we propose a new concept, thinning-out, for reducing the number of trials in skill discovery. Thinning-out means to skip over such trials that are unlikely to improv...
Abstract Within the context of solving Mixed-Integer Linear Programs by a Branch-andCut algorithm, we propose a new strategy for branching. Computational experiments show that, on ...
We consider the process of cleaning a network where at each time step, all vertices that have at least as many brushes as incident, contaminated edges, send brushes down these edg...

Data mining methods can be used for discovering interesting patterns in manufacturing databases. These patterns can be used to improve manufacturing processes. However, data accum...
In this paper we deal with the problem of finding an optimal query execution plan in database systems. We improve the analysis of a polynomial-time approximation algorithm due to M...
