We consider the computational problem of finding nearest neighbors in general metric spaces. Of particular interest are spaces that may not be conveniently embedded or approximate...
We hypothesize that the relationship between parameter settings, specically parameters controlling mutation, and performance is non-linear in genetic programs. Genetic programmin...
This paper presents two contributions: A set of routines that manipulate instances of stochastic programming problems in order to make them more amenable for different solution ap...
The current research in granular computing is dominated by set-theoretic models such as rough sets and fuzzy sets. By recasting the existing studies in a wider context, we propose ...
Query containment is a fundamental algorithmic problem in database query processing and optimization. Under set semantics, the query-containment problem for conjunctive queries ha...
