Finding binary sequences with low autocorrelation is a very hard problem with many practical applications. In this paper we analyze several metaheuristic approaches to tackle the ...
Most research in algorithms for geometric query problems has focused on their worstcase performance. However, when information on the query distribution is available, the alternat...
In tree search, depth-first search (DFS) often uses ordering successor heuristics. If the heuristic makes a mistake ordering a bad successor (without goals in its subtree) before ...
