Local ratio is a well-known paradigm for designing approximation algorithms for combinatorial optimization problems. At a very high level, a local-ratio algorithm first decomposes ...
We propose a hybrid algorithm (called ALPINE) between Genetic Algorithm and Dantzig's Simplex method to approximate optimal solutions for the Flexible Job-Shop Problem. Local...
In this paper, we propose new dominance relations that can speed up significantly the solution process of nonlinear constrained dynamic optimization problems in discrete time and...
Search engine quality is impacted by two factors: the quality of the ranking/matching algorithm used and the freshness of the search engine’s index, which maintains a “snapsho...

The 2-class transduction problem, as formulated by Vapnik [1], involves finding a separating hyperplane for a labelled data set that is also maximally distant from a given set of...
