The observation and modeling of natural Complex Systems (CSs) like the human nervous system, the evolution or the weather, allows the definition of special abilities and models re...
This paper presents a formulation of the facilities block layout problem which explicitly considers uncertainty in material handling costs on a continuous scale by use of expected...
The quality of an information retrieval system heavily depends on its retrieval function, which returns a similarity measurement between the query and each document in the collect...
We propose a hybrid algorithm (called ALPINE) between Genetic Algorithm and Dantzig's Simplex method to approximate optimal solutions for the Flexible Job-Shop Problem. Local...
Discriminative learning is challenging when examples are sets of features, and the sets vary in cardinality and lack any sort of meaningful ordering. Kernel-based classification m...
