Deterministic optimization approaches have been well developed and widely used in the process industry to accomplish off-line and on-line process optimization. The challenging tas...
Bucket elimination is an algorithmic framework that generalizes dynamic programming to accommodate many problem-solving and reasoning tasks. Algorithms such as directional-resolut...
Summarization of query results is an important problem for many OLAP applications. The Minimum Description Length principle has been applied in various studies to provide summarie...
This paper describes a hybrid approach to solving large-scale constraint satisfaction and optimization problems. It describes a hybrid algorithm for integer linear programming whic...
— Timed Continuous Petri Net (TCPN) systems are piecewise linear models with input constraints that can approximate the dynamical behavior of a class of timed discrete event syst...
