Abstract. We develop a generic framework for deriving linear-size problem kernels for NP-hard problems on planar graphs. We demonstrate the usefulness of our framework in several c...
Case-based problem-solving systems reason and learn from experiences, building up case libraries of problems and solutions to guide future reasoning. The expected bene ts of this l...
The minimum singular value (MSV) rule is a useful tool for selecting controlled variables (CVs) from the available measurements. However, the application of the MSV rule to large-...
Biogeography-based optimization algorithm(BBO) is a new kind of optimization algorithm based on Biogeography. It is designed based on the migration strategy of animals to solve the...
Abstract. In this paper, the optimization of the Berth Allocation Problem (BAP) is transformed into a multiple stage decision making procedure and a new stochastic beam search algo...
