In this paper, an algorithm for finding piecewise linear boundaries between pattern classes is developed. This algorithm consists of two main stages. In the first stage, a polyhedral conic set is used to identify data points which lie inside their classes, and in the second stage we exclude...

Clusterwise regression consists of finding a number of regression functions each approximating a subset of the data. In this paper, a new approach for solving the clusterwise linear regression problems is proposed based on a nonsmooth nonconvex formulation. We present an algorithm for minimizing...

This paper is concerned with the invigilator-exam assignment problem. A web-based Automated Invigilator Assignment System (AIAS), consists of a mathematical model; a database storing the information and web-based user interfaces is constructed to solve the problem by providing an environment for...

This paper presents the conic scalarization method for scalarization of nonlinear multi-objective optimization problems. We introduce a special class of monotonically increasing sublinear scalarizing functions and show that the zero sublevel set of every function from this class is a convex...
