This paper presents a simple procedure for accelerating convergence in a generalized Fermat–Weber problem with lp distances. The main idea is to multiply the predetermined step ...
Good heuristic solutions for large Multisource Weber problems can be obtained by solving related p-median problems in which potential locations of the facilities are users location...
We introduce a novel combinatorial optimization problem: the one-commodity traveling salesman problem with selective pickup and delivery (1-TSP-SELPD), characterized by the fact th...
We present a modified version of Differential Evolution (DE) for locating the global minimum at a higher convergence velocity. The proposed model differs from conventional DE by a...
We address the problem of seeking the global mode of a density function using the mean shift algorithm. Mean shift, like other gradient ascent optimisation methods, is susceptible...
