Nowadays there are several classes of constrained codes intended for different applications. The following two large classes can be distinguished. The first class contains codes with local constraints; for example, the source data must be…
In this work, we introduce a new notion for representing graph classes with formal languages. In contrast to the seminal work by Kitaev and Pyatkin to represent graphs by words, we use formal binary languages in order to have a set of…
The change-making problem consists of representing a certain amount of money with the least possible number of coins, from a given, pre-established set of denominations. The greedy algorithm works by choosing the coins of largest possible…
A combinatorial Gray code for a class of objects is a listing that contains each object from the class exactly once such that any two consecutive objects in the list differ only by a `small change'. Such listings are known for many…
We define the notion of circular words, then consider on such words a constraint derived from the Fibonacci condition. We give several results on the structure of these circular words, then mention possible applications to various…
In this paper we determine a class of critical sets in the abelian {2--group} that may be obtained from a greedy algorithm. These new critical sets are all 2--critical (each entry intersects an intercalate, a trade of size 4) and completes…
We consider the problem of online graph colouring. Whenever a node is requested, a colour must be assigned to the node, and this colour must be different from the colours of any of its neighbours. According to the greedy algorithm the node…
In [2] we show how to construct information sets for Reed-Muller codes only in terms of their basic parameters. In this work we deal with the corresponding problem for q-ary Generalized Reed-Muller codes of first and second order. We see…
Optimal selection of a subset of items from a given set is a hard problem that requires combinatorial optimization. In this paper, we propose a subset selection algorithm that is trainable with gradient-based methods yet achieves…
In this paper, constructions of some double circulant self-dual codes by generalized cyclotomic classes of order two are presented. This technique is applied to [72, 36, 12] binary highest know self-dual codes to obtain self-dual codes over…
The notion of a two-dimensional word arises naturally in the study of combinatorics on words, while the iterative construction of pedal triangles results in a rich dynamical system in the study of geometry. At first, these two classes of…
We show that the first-order logical theory of the binary overlap-free words (and, more generally, the ${\alpha}$-free words for rational ${\alpha}$, $2 < {\alpha} \leq 7/3$), is decidable. As a consequence, many results previously obtained…
Many algorithms for maximizing a monotone submodular function subject to a knapsack constraint rely on the natural greedy heuristic. We present a novel refined analysis of this greedy heuristic which enables us to: $(1)$ reduce the…
In this work, connected cubic planar bipartite graphs and related binary self-dual codes are studied. Binary self-dual codes of length 16 are obtained by face-vertex incidence matrices of these graphs. By considering their lifts to the ring…
Inspired by distributed algorithms, we introduce a new class of finite graph automata that recognize precisely the graph languages definable in monadic second-order logic. For the cases of words and trees, it has been long known that the…
We discuss the modifications of the Kripke trick simulating binary predicate letters of classical first-order formulas with monadic modal first-order formulas and the situations where the trick does not work. As a result, we obtain results…
State of the art maximum clique algorithms use a greedy graph colouring as a bound. We show that greedy graph colouring can be misleading, which has implications for parallel branch and bound.
In the design of algorithms, the greedy paradigm provides a powerful tool for solving efficiently classical computational problems, within the framework of procedural languages. However, expressing these algorithms within the declarative…
This paper introduces a greedy parser based on neural networks, which leverages a new compositional sub-tree representation. The greedy parser and the compositional procedure are jointly trained, and tightly depends on each-other. The…
A combinatorial Gray code for a set of combinatorial objects is a sequence of all combinatorial objects in the set so that each object is derived from the preceding object by changing a small part. In this paper we design a Gray code for…
