Since the state space of most games is a directed graph, many game-playing systems detect repeated positions with a transposition table. This approach can reduce search effort by ...
Hierarchical decompositions of graphs are interesting for algorithmic purposes. There are several types of hierarchical decompositions. Tree decompositions are the best known ones....
The restarted line search, or coordinate-wise search, algorithm is tested on the BBOB 2009 testbed. Two different univariate search algorithms (fminbnd from MATLAB and STEP) were...
We present a simple O(m+n6 / 12 ) time (1+ )-approximation algorithm for the problem of cutting a convex n-gon out of a convex m-gon with line cuts of minimum total cutting length....
The k-Leaf Root problem is a particular case of graph power problems. Here, we study “error correction” versions of k-Leaf Root—that is, for instance, adding or deleting at m...
