چکیده

Given a set of points S in any dimension, we describe a deterministic algorithm for finding a T ⊂ S, |T | = O(1/ε) such that the centroid of T approximates the centroid of S within a factor 1+ ε for any fixed ε > 0. We achieve this in linear time by an efficient derandomization of the algorithm in [M. Inaba, N. Katoh, H. Imai, Applications of weighted Voronoi diagrams and randomization to variance-based k-clustering (extended abstract), in: Proceedings of the Tenth Annual Symposium on Computational Geometry, 1994, pp. 332–339]. © 2007 Elsevier B.V.

ارائه یک الگوریتم ابتکاری جدید برای حل مساله مکان‌یابی پوشش کلی

Set covering problem has many applications such as emergency systems, retailers’ facilities, hospitals, radar devices, and military logistics, and it is considered as Np-Hard problems. The goal of set covering problem is to find a subset such that :::::::::union::::::::: of the subset members covered the whole set. In this paper, we present a new heuristic algorithm to solve the set covering pr...

Parallelizing Assignment Problem with DNA Strands

Background:Many problems of combinatorial optimization, which are solvable only in exponential time, are known to be Non-Deterministic Polynomial hard (NP-hard). With the advent of parallel machines, new opportunities have been emerged to develop the effective solutions for NP-hard problems. However, solving these problems in polynomial time needs massive parallel machines and ...

A Parallel Genetic Algorithm Based Method for Feature Subset Selection in Intrusion Detection Systems

Intrusion detection systems are designed to provide security in computer networks, so that if the attacker crosses other security devices, they can detect and prevent the attack process. One of the most essential challenges in designing these systems is the so called curse of dimensionality. Therefore, in order to obtain satisfactory performance in these systems we have to take advantage of app...

A Genetic Algorithm for Choice-Based Network Revenue Management

In recent years, enriching traditional revenue management models by considering the customer choice behavior has been a main challenge for researchers. The terminology for the airline application is used as representative of the problem. A popular and an efficient model considering these behaviors is choice-based deterministic linear programming (CDLP). This model assumes that each customer bel...
