This paper deals with algorithms for detecting graph isomorphism (GI) properties. The GI literature consists of numerous research directions, from highly theoretical studies (e.g. defining the GI complexity class) to very practical applications (pattern recognition, image processing). We first present the context of our work and provide a brief overview of various algorithms developed in such disparate...
A matheuristic approach, where concepts from linear programming are integrated into an evolutionary algorithm, is proposed. It is tested on a problem arising in wireless sensor networks: a topology with minimum total power expenditure, that connects a source node to all the other nodes of the network, has to be identified. Experimental results are presented.
We study the dual power management problem in wireless sensor networks. Given a wireless sensor network with two possible power levels (heigh and low) for each sensor, the problem consists in minimizing the number of sensors assigned heigh power while ensuring the connectivity of the network. We formulate the problem by a binary integer programming model to minimize the total power consumption. Since...
We present a deterministic HIV/AIDS model with delay. We then extend the model by adjoining terms capturing stochastic effects. The intensity of the fluctuations in the stochastic system is analytically evaluated using Fourier transform methods. We carry out simulations to assess differences in the dynamical behavior of the deterministic and stochastic models. Simulation results show that they are...
Consider the set S of points in the plane consisting of the ordered pairs (i, j ), where and . A problem related to the study of segmentation evaluation of visual images concerns finding a permutation σ of the points of S for which the sum $$ \sum\limits_{s \in S}d(s, \sigma(s)) $$ is maximal among all possible permutations of S, where...
In this paper, we consider a trust region algorithm for unconstrained optimization problems. Unlike the traditional memoryless trust region methods, our trust region model includes memory of the past iteration, which makes the algorithm less myopic in the sense that its behavior is not completely dominated by the local nature of the objective function, but rather by a more global view. The global...
To find the fuzzy optimal solution of fuzzy transportation problems it is assumed that the direct route between a source and a destination is a minimum-cost route. However, in actual application, the minimum-cost route is not known a priori. In fact, the minimum-cost route from one source to another destination may well pass through another source first. In this paper, a new method is proposed to...
