It is well known that using high-locality representations is important for efficient evolutionary search. This paper discusses how the locality of a representation influences the ...
We present a unified view of many translation algorithms that synthesizes work on deductive parsing, semiring parsing, and efficient approximate search algorithms. This gives rise...
In this paper we propose a new tabu search hyperheuristic which makes individual low level heuristics tabu dynamically using an analogy with the Binary Exponential Back Off (BEBO) ...
