Abstract Objective: To identify differences between Hispanics and Caucasians in mathematics problem-solving abilities using the KeyMath-3. Methods: The data for this study was derived from a large de-identified database. sample contained two groups: Hispanic group, (n=38; 64.4% female; mean age=29.9, SD=10.46; education=12.89, SD=10.46) Caucasian group (n=72; 65.8% age=31, SD=13.27; education=1...

Collaboration plays a critical role when a group is striving for goals which are difficult or impossible to achieve by an individual. Knowledge about collaborators’ contributions to a task is important when solving problems as a team. However, a problem in many collaboration scenarios is the uncertainty and incompleteness of such knowledge. To investigate this problem, we present a collaboratio...

Nonlinear constrained programing problem (NCPP) has been arisen in diverse range of sciences such as portfolio, economic management etc.. In this paper, a multiobjective imperialist competitive evolutionary algorithm for solving NCPP is proposed. Firstly, we transform the NCPP into a biobjective optimization problem. Secondly, in order to improve the diversity of evolution country swarm, and he...
