This paper proposes a local search algorithm that makes use of a complex neighborhood relation based on a hybridization with a constructive heuristics for the classical resource-co...
We show that searching the k-change neighborhood is W[1]-hard for metric TSP, which means that finding the best tour in the k-change neighborhood essentially requires complete sea...
Abstract. To practically solve NP-hard combinatorial optimization problems, local search algorithms and their parallel implementations on PVM or MPI have been frequently discussed....
Many modern natural language-processing applications utilize search engines to locate large numbers of Web documents or to compute statistics over the Web corpus. Yet Web search e...
Abstract-- The Maximum Parsimony problem aims at reconstructing a phylogenetic tree from DNA sequences while minimizing the number of genetic transformations. To solve this NP-comp...
