Abstract. The adaptive noise mechanism was introduced in Novelty+ to automatically adapt noise settings during the search [4]. The local search algorithm G2 WSAT deterministically ...
—The university course timetabling problem (UCTP) is a combinatorial optimization problem, in which a set of events has to be scheduled into time slots and located into suitable ...
Link analysis algorithms have been extensively used in Web information retrieval. However, current link analysis algorithms generally work on a flat link graph, ignoring the hiera...
Abstract. There are two complementary approaches to playing sums of combinatorial games. They can be characterized as local analysis and global search. Algorithms from combinatoria...
The gap in automation between MIP/SAT solvers and those for constraint programming and constraint-based local search hinders experimentation and adoption of these technologies and...
