We consider a possible scenario of experimental analysis on heuristics for optimization: identifying the contribution of local search components when algorithms are evaluated on th...
Abstract. The EENCL algorithm [1] automatically designs neural network ensembles for classification, combining global evolution with local search based on gradient descent. Two mec...
Local search is a specialization of the web search that allows users to submit geographically constrained queries. However, one of the challenges for local search engines is to un...
Abstract. We present a new hybrid constraint solving schema which retains some systematicity of constructive search while incorporating the heuristic guidance and lack of commitmen...
The Walksat local search algorithm has previously been extended to handle quantification over variables. This greatly reduces model sizes, but in order to guide greedy moves the a...
