This paper presents a novel approach to solve the constrained unit commitment problem using Selective Self-Adaptive Ant System (SSAS) for improving search performance by automatic...
We describe an application of data mining and decision analysis to the problem of die-level functional test in integrated circuit manufacturing. Integrated circuits are fabricated...
The Principal Components Analysis (PCA) is one of the most successfull techniques that have been used to recognize faces in images. This technique consists of extracting the eigenv...
We examine the use of a hop-limit constraint with techniques to provide survivability for connection-oriented ATM group communications. A hop-limit constraint is an approach that ...
Abstract. The purpose of this paper is (1) to provide a theoretical justification for the use of Monte-Carlo sampling for approximate resolution of NP-hard maximization problems in...
