Baniasadi, Pouya - 2016

This book was motivated by the notion that some of the underlying difficulty in challenging instances of graph-based problems (e.g., the Traveling Salesman Problem) may be “inherited” from simpler graphs which – in an appropriate sense – could be seen as “ancestors” of the given...

An Evolutionary Algorithm for the Estimation of Threshold Vector Error Correction Models

El-Shagi, Makram - 2010

We develop an evolutionary algorithm to estimate Threshold Vector Error Correction models (TVECM) with more than two cointegrated variables. Since disregarding a threshold in cointegration models renders standard approaches to the estimation of the cointegration vectors inefficient, TVECM...

Particle Swarm Optimization for Optimal Product Line Design

Tsafarakis, Stelios; Marinakis, Ioannis; Matsatsinis, … - 2010

Designing optimal products is one of the most critical activities for a firm to stay competitive. Except for genetic algorithms, previous approaches that solve the optimal product line design problem provide the decision maker with a single best solution. Furthermore, they assume a static...

Grasp with Hybrid Path Relinking for Bi-Objective Winner Determination in Combinatorial Transportation Auctions

Buer, Tobias - 2010

The procurement of transportation services via large-scale combinatorial auctions involves a couple of complex decisions whose outcome highly influences the performance of the tender process. This paper examines the shipper's task of selecting a subset of the submitted bids which efficiently...
