— Quasirandom or low discrepancy sequences, such as the Van der Corput, Sobol, Faure, Halton (named after their inventors) etc. are less random than a pseudorandom number sequenc...
—This paper describes the application of various search techniques to the problem of automatic empirical code optimization. The search process is a critical aspect of auto-tuning...
Motivation: Database search programs such as FASTA, BLAST or a rigorous Smith–Waterman algorithm produce lists of database entries, which are assumed to be related to the query....
Given a set of keywords, we find a maximum Web query (containing the most keywords possible) that respects userdefined bounds on the number of returned hits. We assume a real-world...
This paper describes an approach to the use of gradient descent search in genetic programming (GP) for object classification problems. In this approach, pixel statistics are used ...
