Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm is considered new and widely used in searching for optimum solutions. This is due to its uniqueness in problem-solving method where the solution for a problem emerges from intelligent behaviour of honeybee swarms. This paper proposes the use of the ABC algorithm as a new tool for Data Mining particularly in classification tasks. Moreover, the proposed ABC f...

One of the application areas of genetic algorithms is parameter optimization. This paper addresses the problem of optimizing a set of parameters that represent the weights of criteria, where the sum of all weights is 1. A chromosome represents the values of the weights, possibly along with some cut-off points. A new crossover operation, called continuous uniform crossover, is proposed, such tha...

One of application areas of the genetic algorithms is parameter optimization. This paper addresses the problem of optimizing a set of parameters that represent the weights of criteria, where the sum of all weights is 1. A chromosome represents the values of the weights, possibly along with some cut-oo points. A new cross-over operation, called continuous uniform crossover, is proposed, such tha...

Single-particle cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) can now yield near-atomic resolution structures of biological complexes. However, the reference-based alignment algorithms commonly used in cryo-EM suffer from reference bias, limiting their applicability (also known as the 'Einstein from random noise' problem). Low-dose cryo-EM therefore requires robust and objective approaches to reveal ...

One of the key elements in production planning hierarchy is master production scheduling. The aim of this study is to evaluate and compare thirteen alternative MPS development methods, including multi-objective optimization as well as twelve heuristics, in different operating conditions for multi-product single-level capacity-constrained production systems. We extract six critical criteria from...

NexClass is a multi-criteria methodology and decision support system developed to classification into predefined nominal (non-ordered) categories. In this paper we introduce an extension of at problems ordinal (ordered) For each category entrance threshold defined by maker, which indicates its boundary with respect the evaluation criteria. Then, assignment alternatives classes based on concept ...

Abstract On the basis of traditional ABC classification method, this paper determines another standard to subdivide goods, that is, hierarchical method. The calculation shows that, based on efficiency multi-layer horizontal rotating shelves is increased by 26.94% and vertical 37.25%. partition design scheme helpful optimize operation shelf warehousing system verifies validity rationality design.

Multicriteria sorting involves assigning the objects of decisions (actions) into $a$ priori known ordered classes considering preferences a decision maker (DM). Two new multicriteria methods were recently proposed by authors. These ar...
