Coherent Inference on Optimal Play in Game Trees
Round-based games are an instance of discrete planning problems. Some of the best contemporary game tree search algorithms use random roll-outs as data. Relying on a good policy, ...

A New Indexing Method for Approximate String Matching
We present a new indexing method for the approximate string matching problem. The method is based on a su x tree combined with a partitioning of the pattern. We analyze the resulti...

Approximating geometric crossover in semantic space
We propose a crossover operator that works with genetic programming trees and is approximately geometric crossover in the semantic space. By defining semantic as program’s eval...

Approximation Algorithms for Orienteering and Discounted-Reward TSP
In this paper, we give the rst constant-factor approximationalgorithmfor the rooted Orienteering problem, as well as a new problem that we call the Discounted-Reward TSP, motivate...
