Recently, a number of works have been done on how to use Genetic Algorithms to solve the Portfolio Optimization problem, which is an instance of the Resource Allocation problem cl...
We study an inventory system under periodic review in the presence of two suppliers (or delivery modes). The emergency supplier has a shorter lead-time than the regular supplier, ...
An ideal shape model should be both invariant to global transformations and robust to local distortions. In this paper we present a new shape modeling framework that achieves both...
In this paper we propose a new framework for modeling 2D shapes. A shape is first described by a sequence of local features (e.g., curvature) of the shape boundary. The resulting ...
Numerous biological functions--such as enzymatic catalysis, the immune response system, and the DNA-protein regulatory network--rely on the ability of molecules to specifically rec...
