University examination timetabling problems comprise arranging exams in the given number of timeslots through the examination sessions. The primary objective of this process is avoiding of students' clashes (i.e. no one student should take two exams simultaneously). This requirement is generally considered as a hard constraint and should be obligatory satisfied in a feasible timetable. However,...

This paper presents a novel visual-admittance-based model predictive control scheme to cope with the problem of vision/force and several constraints nuclear collaborative robotic visual servoing system. A visual-admittance considering desired image feature force command in space is proposed. Moreover, constraint (MPC) proposed cancel overshoot interaction for most cases by taking as MPC. Via ap...

Some high-dimensional datasets can be mod­ elled by assuming that there are many dif­ ferent linear constraints, each of which is Frequently Approximately Satisfied (FAS) by the data. The probability of a data vec­ tor under the model is then proportional to the product of the probabilities of its con­ straint violations. We describe three meth­ ods of learning products of constraints using a h...

making a rational decision about the free production capacity of a firm requires accurate and comprehensive information in different fields such as unscheduled time of the machines, materials or other required resources status in the firm and the related supply chain. in this study, we try to achieve the needed information through integrating advanced available-to-promise mechanism with schedul...

university course timetabling is a complex optimizationproblem. there are many components like departments, faculties, rooms,and students making the problem huge and difficult to solve. eachcomponent enforces a set of normally conflicting constraints on thesolution space. the problem will be solved if courses are scheduled indifferent rooms and within some specific time slots such that a set of...
