Anytime algorithms, whose quality of results improves gradually as computation time increases, provide useful performance components for timecritical planning and control of robot...
This paper presents a major revision of the Either propositional theory re nement system. Two issues are discussed. First, we show howrun timee ciency can be greatlyimproved by ch...
This article describes a new system for induction of oblique decision trees. This system, OC1, combines deterministic hill-climbing with two forms of randomization to nd a good ob...
We introduce a new approach to GA (Genetic Algorithms) based problem solving. Earlier GAs did not contain local search (i.e. hill climbing) mechanisms, which led to optimization d...

The output of handwritten word recognizers (HWR) tends to be very noisy due to various factors. In order to compensate for this behaviour, several choices of the HWR must be initi...
