Abstract. AND/OR search spaces have recently been introduced as a unifying paradigm for advanced algorithmic schemes for graphical models. The main virtue of this representation is...
Abstract. We adopt Benders’ decomposition algorithm to solve scenariobased Stochastic Constraint Programs (SCPs) with linear recourse. Rather than attempting to solve SCPs via a ...
The Generalized Maximum Dispersion problem asks for a partition of a given graph into p vertex-disjoint sets, each of them having at most k vertices. The goal is to maximize the to...
Developing scalable algorithms for solving partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) is an important challenge. One promising approach is based on representing POMDP...

In this paper a hybrid algorithm to solve Irregular Strip Packing problems is presented. The metaheuristic simulated annealing is used to guide the search over the solution space ...
