—We study the problem of merging genetic maps, when the individual genetic maps are given as directed acyclic graphs. The computational problem is to build a consensus map, which...
We introduce the Upgrading Shortest Paths Problem, a new combinatorial problem for improving network connectivity with a wide range of applications from multicast communication to ...

The distribution of fitness values across a set of states sharply influences the dynamics of evolutionary processes and heuristic search in combinatorial optimization. In this p...
The hypergraph matching problem is to find a largest collection of disjoint hyperedges in a hypergraph. This is a well-studied problem in combinatorial optimization and graph theo...
The connected facility location (ConFL) problem generalizes the facility location problem and the Steiner tree problem in graphs. Given a graph G = (V, E), a set of customers D ⊆...
