Conflict-Directed A* Search for Soft Constraints
As many real-world problems involve user preferences, costs, or probabilities, constraint satisfaction has been extended to optimization by generalizing hard constraints to soft co...

Multiobjectivizing the HP Model for Protein Structure Prediction
Abstract. The hydrophobic-polar (HP) model for protein structure preabstracts the fact that hydrophobic interactions are a dominant force in the protein folding process. This model...
