We initiate the study of the smoothed complexity of the Closest String problem by proposing a semi-random model of Hamming distance. We restrict interest to the optimization versio...
We report (to our knowledge) the first evaluation of Constraint Satisfaction as a computational framework for solving closest string problems. We show that careful consideration o...
Given a set of strings S of equal lengths over an alphabet Σ, the closest string problem seeks a string over Σ whose maximum Hamming distance to any of the given strings is as s...
