We present a randomized algorithm to nd a minimum spanning forest (MSF) in an undirected graph. With high probability, the algorithm runs in logarithmic time and linear work on an...
We analyze the performance of evolutionary algorithms on various matroid optimization problems that encompass a vast number of efficiently solvable as well as NP-hard combinatoria...
This paper presents a comprehensive comparison between the performance of state-of-the-art genetic algorithms NSGA-II, SPEA2 and IBEA and their differential evolution based variant...
Our main result is an optimal online algorithm for preemptive scheduling on uniformly related machines with the objective to minimize makespan. The algorithm is deterministic, yet...
Abstract. The paper provides an insight into the improved novel metaheuristics of the Firefly Algorithm for constrained continuous optimization tasks. The presented technique is in...
