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...

In this paper, proper optimality concepts in vector optimization with variable ordering structures are introduced for the first time and characterization results via scalarizations are given. New type of scalarizing functionals are presented and their properties are discussed. The scalarization...
