Resource Minimization for Fire Containment
We consider the following model for fire containment. We are given an undirected graph G = (V, E) with a source vertex s where the fire starts. At each time step, the firefighters...

On the Structure of Syntenic Distance
This paper examines some of the rich structure of the syntenic distance model of evolutionary distance, introduced by Ferretti et al. (1996). The syntenic distance between two gen...

Investigating EA solutions for approximate KKT conditions in smooth problems
Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) are increasingly being applied to solve real-parameter optimization problems due to their flexibility in handling complexities such as non-convexity,...

Constructing Approximate Shortest Path Maps in Three Dimensions
We present a new technique for constructing a data-structure that approximates shortest path maps in IRd . By applying this technique, we get the following two results on approxim...

PAC Nearest Neighbor Queries: Approximate and Controlled Search in High-Dimensional and Metric Spaces
In high-dimensional and complex metric spaces, determining the nearest neighbor (NN) of a query object ? can be a very expensive task, because of the poor partitioning operated by...
