The algorithm presented here, BCC, is an enhancement of the well known Backtrack used to solve constraint satisfaction problems. Though most backtrack improvements rely on propaga...
Abstract. Swarm Intelligence (SI) is the property of a system whereby the collective behaviors of (unsophisticated) entities interacting locally with their environment cause cohere...

When a large amount of data are missing, or when multiple hidden nodes exist, learning parameters in Bayesian networks (BNs) becomes extremely difficult. This paper presents a lea...
Abstract-- The need for efficient computation of approximate global state lies at the heart of a wide range of problems in distributed systems. Examples include routing in the Inte...
Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) has been applied successfully in solving the Traveling Salesman Problem. Marco Dorigo et al. used Ant System (AS) to explore the Symmetric Traveling S...
