The computation of page importance in a huge dynamic graph has recently attracted a lot of attention because of the web. Page importance, or page rank is defined as the fixpoint o...
We present DL8, an exact algorithm for finding a decision tree that optimizes a ranking function under size, depth, accuracy and leaf constraints. Because the discovery of optimal...
Abstract We report on experiments with turning the branch-price-andcut framework SCIP into a generic branch-price-and-cut solver. That is, given a mixed integer program (MIP), our ...
Evolutionary Computation is an exciting research field with the power to assist researchers in the task of solving hard optimization problems (i.e., problems where the exploitabl...
