In this paper we propose a genetic and greedy algorithm combination for the optimization of the Topological Active Nets (TAN) model. This is a deformable model used for image segme...
Research on the optimization of Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows (VRPTW) is a significant investigation area of ant colony system (ACS). This paper proposes an enhanced AC...
— Model reduction methods from diverse fields— including control, statistical mechanics and economics—aimed at systems that can be represented by Markov chains, are discusse...

An integrated optimization model of production plan and scheduling is introduced. Function objective is to minimize sum of total setup cost (initial setup cost and related setup c...
In many practical applications of simulation it is desirable to optimize the levels of integer or binary variables that are inputs for the simulation model. In these cases, the ob...
