Abstract: The manufacturing industry encounters numerous optimization problems, one of which is the optimization of storage location assignment (OSLA) problem in logistics. OSLA is a combinatorial ...

Imagine a town with two widget merchants. Customers prefer cheaper widgets, so the merchants must compete to set the lowest price. Unhappy with their meager profits, they meet one night in a ...

Particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is an optimization technique with remarkable performance for problem solving. The convergence analysis of the method is still in research. This article ...

The major challenge in elastic optical networks is to determine the path of a connection and to allocate spectral resources on the links of this path. This problem consists of two sub-problems, ...

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 ...

People learn adaptively from feedback, but the rate of such learning differs drastically across individuals and contexts. Here, we examine whether this variability reflects differences in what is ...

Large language models have captured the news cycle, but there are many other kinds of machine learning and deep learning with many different use cases. Amid all the hype and hysteria about ChatGPT, ...

Abstract: The gate assignment problem (GAP) aims at assigning gates to aircraft considering operational efficiency of airport and satisfaction of passengers. Unlike the existing works, we model the ...

In what may be the first known case of its kind, a faulty facial recognition match led to a Michigan man’s arrest for a crime he did not commit. “This is not me,” Robert Julian-Borchak Williams told ...

The best algorithm for a computational problem generally depends on the “relevant inputs,” a concept that depends on the application domain and often defies formal articulation. Although there is a ...
