When there are multiple trained predictors, one may want to integrate them into one predictor. However, this is challenging if the performances of the trained predictors are unknown and labeled data for evaluating their performances are not given. In this paper, a method is described that uses unlabeled data to estimate the weight parameters needed to build an ensemble predictor integrating multiple...
In this paper, an Economic Production Quantity (EPQ) model is developed with flexibility and reliability consideration of production process in an imprecise and uncertain mixed environment. The model has incorporated fuzzy random demand, an imprecise production preparation time and shortage. Here, the setup cost and the reliability of the production process along with the backorder replenishment time...
The article introduces the concept of snapshot dynamic indices as centrality measures to analyse how the importance of nodes changes over time in dynamic networks. In particular, the dynamic stress-snapshot and dynamic betweenness snapshot are investigated. We present theoretical results on dynamic shortest paths in first-in first-out dynamic networks, and then introduce some algorithms for computing...
One reason why ab initio protein structure predictors do not perform very well is their inability to reliably identify long-range interactions between amino acids. To achieve reliable long-range interactions, all potential pairings of β-strands (β-topologies) of a given protein are enumerated, including the native β-topology. Two very different β-topology scoring methods from the literature are then...
In a multivariate stratified sample survey with L strata and p > 1 characteristics, defined on each unit of the population, let the estimation of all the p-population means be of interest. As discussed by Cochran (1977), since the optimum allocation for one characteristic will not in general be optimum for other characteristics some compromise must be reached in a multiple characteristics stratified...
This paper investigates a production lot-size inventory model for perishable items under two levels of trade credit for a retailer to reflect the supply chain management situation. We assume that the retailer maintains a powerful position and can obtain full trade credit offered by supplier yet retailer just offers the partial trade credit to customers. Under these conditions, retailer can obtain...
