The two most important models of inferencing in approximate reasoning with fuzzy sets are Zadeh's Compositional Rule of Inference (CRI) and Similarity Based Reasoning (SBR). ...
The job rotation problem (JRP) is the following: Given an n × n matrix A over R ∪ {−∞} and k ≤ n, find a k × k principal submatrix of A whose optimal assignment problem...
The crossing number problem is to find the smallest number of edge crossings necessary when drawing a graph into the plane. Eventhough the problem is NP-hard, we are interested in ...
We show how to compute Hong’s bound for the absolute positiveness of a polynomial in d variables with maximum degree δ in O(n logd n) time, where n is the number of non-zero co...
This contribution deals with the optimization of the design of reactive distillation columns by using a memetic algorithm (MA) which is a combination of an evolution strategy (ES)...
