Background: Data clustering analysis has been extensively applied to extract information from gene expression profiles obtained with DNA microarrays. To this aim, existing cluster...
The fundamental Quality of Service (QoS) routing problem, which consists in determining paths subject to multiple QoS constraints, has been extensively investigated in the intra-do...
A common problem in genetic programming search algorithms is destructive crossover in which the offspring of good parents generally has worse performance than the parents. Design...
Deciding what to branch on at each node is a key element of search algorithms. We present four families of methods for selecting what question to branch on. They are all informati...
