We extend the well-known BFGS quasi-Newton method and its memory-limited variant LBFGS to the optimization of nonsmooth convex objectives. This is done in a rigorous fashion by ge...
We consider the problem of embroidering a design pattern, given by a graph G, using a single minimum length thread. We give an exact polynomial-time algorithm for the case that G ...

In this paper, we discuss the inverse classification problem, in which we desire to define the features of an incomplete record in such a way that will result in a desired class l...
In this application of artificial intelligence to a real-world problem, the constrained scheduling of employee resourcing for a mall type shop is solved by means of a genetic algo...
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...
