The aim of this research is twofold: Firstly, to model and solve a complex nurse scheduling problem with an integer programming formulation and evolutionary algorithms. Secondly, ...
In this paper, we propose two new systematic ways to construct amicable orthogonal designs (AOD), with an aim to facilitate the construction of power-balanced orthogonal spacetime ...
Abstract Purpose: This paper presents the preliminary results of a semiautomatic method for prostate segmentation of Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI) which aims to be incorporated i...
The k-means method is a widely used clustering algorithm. One of its distinguished features is its speed in practice. Its worst-case running-time, however, is exponential, leaving...
The aim of this paper is to provide qualitative models characterizing interdependencies related failures of two critical infrastructures: the electricity infrastructure and the ass...
