We consider several classical models in deterministic inventory theory: the single-item lot-sizing problem, the joint replenishment problem, and the multi-stage assembly problem. ...
We present a formal analysis of the database layout problem, i.e., the problem of determining how database objects such as tables and indexes are assigned to disk drives. Optimizin...
With the goal to generate more scalable algorithms with higher efficiency and fewer open parameters, reinforcement learning (RL) has recently moved towards combining classical tec...
This paper presents a novel spatial texture prediction method based on non-negative matrix factorization. As an extension of template matching, approximation based iterative textu...
Many algorithms for motif finding that are commonly used in bioinformatics start by sampling r potential motif occurrences from n input sequences. The motif is derived from these s...
