Stochastic Offline Programming
We propose a framework which we call stochastic offline programming (SOP). The idea is to embed the development of combinatorial algorithms in an off-line learning environment whi...

PTAS for maximum weight independent set problem with random weights in bounded degree graphs
Finding the largest independent set in a graph is a notoriously difficult NP-complete combinatorial optimization problem. Moreover, even for graphs with largest degree 3, no polyn...

Towards a universal test suite for combinatorial auction algorithms
General combinatorial auctions—auctions in which bidders place unrestricted bids for bundles of goods—are the subject of increasing study. Much of this work has focused on alg...

Calculation of stability radii for combinatorial optimization problems
We present algorithms to calculate the stability radius of optimal or approximate solutions of binary programming problems with a min sum or min max objective function. Our algori...

Stochastic local search in continuous domains: questions to be answered when designing a novel algorithm
Several population-based methods (with origins in the world of evolutionary strategies and estimation-of-distribution algorithms) for black-box optimization in continuous domains ...
