We prove that the hit-and-run random walk is rapidly mixing for an arbitrary logconcave distribution starting from any point in the support. This extends the work of [26], where t...
The evolution of music, from random note strings to certain “pleasant” note sequences, is traced in a multi-agent computational model. A community of agents, with some musical ...
Abstract. In this paper, we propose a novel heuristic algorithm for constructing a minimum cost multicast tree. Our work is based on a directed asymmetric network and shows an impr...
Satisfiability problem is an NP-complete problem that finds itself or its variants in many combinatorial problems. There exist many complete algorithms that give successful results...
Abstract. This paper describes a new approach for parameter optimization that uses a novel representation for the parameters to be optimized. By using genetic programming, the new ...
