DFS-Tree Based Heuristic Search ⋆
"... Abstract. In constraint satisfaction, local search is an incomplete method for finding a solution to a problem. Solving a general constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) is known to be NP-complete; so that heuristic techniques are usually used. The main contribution of this work is twofold: (i) a tech ..."

technique for de-composing a CSP into a DFS-tree CSP structure; (ii) an heuristic search technique for solving DFS-tree CSP structures. This heuristic search technique has been empirically evaluated with random CSPs. The evaluation results show that the behavior of our heuristic outperforms than
Meta-Learning Rule Learning Heuristics Meta-Learning Rule Learning Heuristics
"... The goal of this paper is to investigate to what extent a rule learning heuristic can be learned from experience. Our basic approach is to learn a large number of rules and record their performance on the test set. Subsequently, we train regression algorithms on predicting the test set performance f ..."

To that end, we let a rule learner learn a large number of rules and record their performance on the test set. Subsequently, we train regression algorithms on predicting the test set per ..."

New Dynamic Heuristics in the Client-Agent-Server Model
- in "IEEE Heterogeneous Computing Workshop - HCW’03
, 2003
"... MCT is a widely used heuristic for scheduling tasks onto grid platforms. However, when dealing with many tasks, MCT tends to dramatically delay already mapped task completion time, while scheduling a new task. In this paper we propose heuristics based on two features: the historical trace manager th ..."

A New Heuristic for Improving the Performance of Genetic Algorithm
"... Abstract—The hybridisation of genetic algorithm with heuristics has been shown to be one of an effective way to improve its performance. In this work, genetic algorithm hybridised with four heuristics including a new heuristic called neighbourhood improvement were investigated through the classical ..."

Scalable Influence Maximization for Prevalent Viral Marketing in Large-Scale Social Networks
"... Influence maximization, defined by Kempe, Kleinberg, and Tardos (2003), is the problem of finding a small set of seed nodes in a social network that maximizes the spread of influence under certain influence cascade models. The scalability of influence maximization is a key factor for enabling preval ..."

An Improved Heuristic for Minimizing Total Completion Time on Single Machine with Release Time
, 2009
"... Abstract: This study considers the scheduling problem of minimizing the total completion time on a single machine with release dates. In view of the NP-Hard nature of the problem, one heuristic (called MM) was proposed for this problem. The proposed heuristic and two others (AEO and HR1) selected f ..."

Experimental results show that the proposed heuristic outperforms the AEO algorithm with respect to effectiveness and efficiency. Also, the proposed heuristic outperforms
An Optimizationbased Heuristic for Maximal Constraint Satisfaction
- In Proceedings of International Conference on Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming
, 1995
"... Abstract. We present a new heuristic approach for maximal constraint satisfaction of overconstrained problems (MAX-CSP). This approach is based on a formulation of CSP as an optimization problem presented in a previous paper [Meseguer and Larrosa, 95], which has given good results on some classes o ..."

Experimental results show that both heuristics outperform previously used heuristics based on inconsistency counts. In fact, the lowest support
A New Heuristic Approach for the Stock- Cutting Problems

In order to solve the large-scale problem effectively and efficiently, we propose a simple but fast heuristic algorithm. It is shown that this heuristic outperforms the latest ..."

Unifying the causal graph and additive heuristics

, 2008
"... Many current heuristics for domain-independent planning, such as Bonet and Geffner’s additive heuristic and Hoffmann and Nebel’s FF heuristic, are based on delete relaxations. They estimate the goal distance of a search state by approximating the solution cost in a relaxed task where negative conseq ..."
