Metaheuristics have often been shown to be effective for difficult combinatorial optimization problems. The reason for that, however, remains unclear. A framework for a theory of ...
Most models of utility elicitation in decision support and interactive optimization assume a predefined set of "catalog" features over which user preferences are express...
— Traditional Physical Carrier Sensing (PCS), which aims at eliminating hidden terminals in wireless networks, causes too many exposed terminals and deteriorates the throughput p...
Abstract. The problem of averaging outcomes under several scenarios to form overall objective functions is of considerable importance in decision support under uncertainty. The fuz...
Optimization of the mesh quality of surface triangulation is critical for advanced numerical simulations and is challenging under the constraints of error minimization and density ...
