Mutation rates of the (1+1)-EA on pseudo-boolean functions of bounded epistasis
When the epistasis of the fitness function is bounded by a constant, we show that the expected fitness of an offspring of the (1+1)-EA can be efficiently computed for any point...

Using Generalization Error Bounds to Train the Set Covering Machine
In this paper we eliminate the need for parameter estimation associated with the set covering machine (SCM) by directly minimizing generalization error bounds. Firstly, we consider...

Sharp Separation and Applications to Exact and Parameterized Algorithms
Many divide-and-conquer algorithms employ the fact that the vertex set of a graph of bounded treewidth can be separated in two roughly balanced subsets by removing a small subset o...

On achieving optimized capacity utilization in application overlay networks with multiple competing sessions
In this paper, we examine the problem of large-volume data dissemination via overlay networks. A natural way to maximize the throughput of an overlay multicast session is to split...
