ABSTRACT: This article examines some of the properties of quasi-Fejer sequences when used in quasi-gradiental techniques as an alternative to stochastic search techniques for optimizing unconstrained ...

Abstract: Inspired by the search method of harmony search algorithms, we propose an other version of improved harmony search(IHS)algorithm to solve integer programming problems. This paper designs a ...

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 ...

Integer programming (IP) is a powerful tool used to solve optimization problems with discrete variables. This means the variables can only take on whole number values, representing real-world ...

The output of the underlying PRNG is generally some number of bytes. Converting that to an integer in an arbitrary range can be done in a few different ways, and we'll need to pick one. This blog post ...

Integer linear programming can help find the answer to a variety of real-world problems. Now researchers have found a much faster way to do it. The traveling salesperson problem is one of the oldest ...

Mixed-integer quadratic programming (MIQP) is the problem of optimizing a quadratic function over points in a polyhedral set where some of the components are restricted to be integral. In this paper, ...
