The Vose dynamical system model of the simple genetic algorithm models the behavior of this algorithm for large population sizes and is the basis of the exact Markov chain model. ...
Motion capture, a currently active research area, needs estimation of the pose of the subject. For this purpose, we match the tree representation of the skeleton of the 3D shape t...
Abstract. Gene trees are leaf-labeled trees inferred from molecular sequences. Due to duplication events arising in genome evolution, gene trees usually have multiple copies of som...
Data integrated from multiple sources may contain inconsistencies that violate integrity constraints. The constraint repair problem attempts to find "low cost" changes t...

Abstract. In this paper we propose an optimal anytime version of constrained simulated annealing (CSA) for solving constrained nonlinear programming problems (NLPs). One of the goa...
