Lecture Notes in Computer Science: Stochastic Algorithms: Foundations and Applications : 5th International Symposium, SAGA 2009 Sapporo, Japan, October 26-28, 2009 Proceedings 5792 (2009, Paperback) by read DOC, EPUB
9783642049439 3642049435 The 5th Symposium on Stochastic Algorithms, Foundations and Applications (SAGA 2009) took place during October 26 28, 2009, at Hokkaido University, Sapporo(Japan).ThesymposiumwasorganizedbytheDivisionofComputerS- ence, GraduateSchoolofComputerScienceandTechnology, HokkaidoUniversity. It o'ered the opportunity to present original research on the design and analysis of randomized algorithms, random combinatorialstructures, implem- tation, experimental evaluation and real-world application of stochastic al- rithms/heuristics. In particular, the focus of the SAGA symposia series is on investigating the power of randomization in algorithms, and on the theory of stochastic processes especially within realistic scenarios and applications. Thus, the scope ofthe symposiumrangesfromthe study oftheoreticalfundamentals of randomizedcomputationtoexperimentalinvestigationsonalgorithms/heuristics and related stochastic processes. The SAGA symposium series is a biennial meeting. Previous SAGA s- posiatookplaceinBerlin, Germany(2001, LNCSvol.2264), Hat'eld, UK(2003, LNCS vol. 2827), Moscow, Russia (2005, LNCS vol. 3777), and Zur ] ich, Switz- land (2007, LNCS vol. 4665). This year 22 submissions were received, and the Program Committee selected 15 submissions for presentation. All papers were evaluated by at least three members of the ProgramCommittee, partly with the assistance of subreferees. The present volume contains the texts of the 15 papers presented at SAGA 2009, divided into groups of papers on learning, graphs, testing, optimization, and caching as well as on stochastic algorithms in bioinformatic, This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Symposium on Stochastic Algorithms: Foundations and Applications, SAGA 2007, held in Zurich, Switzerland in September 2007.The nine revised full papers and five invited papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected out of 31 submissions for inclusion in the book. The contributed papers included in this volume cover both theoretical as well as applied aspects of stochastic computations with a special focus on investigating the power of randomization in algorithmics., This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Symposium on Stochastic Algorithms, Foundations and Applications, SAGA 2009, held in Sapporo, Japan, in October 2009.The 15 revised full papers presented together with 2 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 22 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on learning, graphs, testing, optimization and caching, as well as stochastic algorithms in bioinformatics.
