The global optimization of integer and mixed integer non-linear problems has a lot of applications in engineering. In this paper a heuristic algorithm is developed using line-up competition and ...

ABSTRACT: In Computed Tomography (CT), the beam hardening artifacts are caused by polychromatic X-ray beams applied in real medical imaging. In this article, we applied the recently proposed ...

The old Babylonian algorithm, a remarkable mathematical artifact from ancient Mesopotamia (around 1800–1600 BC), has long been a subject of fascination to scholars. This ancient algorithm not only ...

ABSTRACT: A hybrid strategy is proposed to solve the problems of poor population diversity, insufficient convergence accuracy and susceptibility to local optimal values in the original Arctic Puffin ...

CasADi is a symbolic framework for numeric optimization implementing automatic differentiation in forward and reverse modes on sparse matrix-valued computational graphs. It supports self-contained ...

Abstract: In the realm of daily life planning, the challenge of optimizing decisions is frequently encountered, with traditional methods often failing to achieve desired outcomes. To address this ...

Integer Linear Programming (ILP) is the foundation of combinatorial optimization, which is extensively applied across numerous industries to resolve challenging decision-making issues. Under a set of ...
