Heuristic Search for Generalized Stochastic Shortest Path MDPs
Research in efficient methods for solving infinite-horizon MDPs has so far concentrated primarily on discounted MDPs and the more general stochastic shortest path problems (SSPs...

Elicitation strategies for soft constraint problems with missing preferences: Properties, algorithms and experimental studies
We consider soft constraint problems where some of the preferences may be unspecified. This models, for example, settings where agents are distributed and have privacy issues, or ...

Design of tensegrity structures using parametric analysis and stochastic search
Tensegrity structures are lightweight structures composed of cables in tension and struts in compression. Since tensegrity systems exhibit geometrically nonlinear behavior, findin...

An Integer Local Search Method with Application to Capacitated Production Planning
Production planning is an important task in manufacturing systems. We consider a real-world capacitated lot-sizing problem (CLSP) from the process industry. Because the problem re...
