Abstract: An iterated greedy algorithm (IGA) is a simple and powerful heuristic algorithm. It is widely used to solve flow-shop scheduling problems (FSPs), an important branch of production scheduling ...

With $500 million in funding and a reported $2.5 billion valuation, Flourish wants to reinvent AI by putting real neurons under the microscope.

Algorithms have taken on an almost mythical significance in the modern world. They determine what you see on social media and when browsing online, help form people’s belief systems, and impact the ...

Non-linear regression modeling is common in epidemiology for prediction purposes or estimating relationships between predictor and response variables. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) regression is one ...

Finding bipartite matchings is one of the oldest and most well-studied problems in computer science. This problem comes up in many guises, such as when matching donors to recipients for organ ...

Vehicle Routing Problem or simply VRP is a well known combinatorial optimization problem and a generalization of the travelling salesman problem. A definition of the problem is this: We have a number ...
