in this paper, genetic algorithms (gas) are employed to control simultaneous linear systems in both state and output feedback. first, the similarity transformation is applied to obtain parameterized controllers. this requires solution of a system of equations and also some non-linear inequalities. gas are used to solve these equations and inequalities. therefore, the paper presents an analytica...

background: despite the enhancement in health outcomes worldwide, health inequity and inequality is one of the most relevant topics both for health policy and public health. this research was designed to decompose the health inequality of people living in shiraz, south-west iran. methods: data were obtained from a multistage-sample survey conducted in shiraz from april to may 2012, to find dete...

in this paper, we obtain two intrinsic integral inequalities of hessian manifolds.

In this paper, we introduce an operation that creates families of facet-defining inequalities for highdimensional infinite group problems using facet-defining inequalities of lower-dimensional group problems. We call this family sequential-merge inequalities because they are produced by applying two group cuts one after the other and because the resultant inequality depends on the order of the ...

In this paper a new method is introduced for path planning of an autonomous vehicle. In this method, the environment is considered cluttered and with some uncertainty sources. Thus, the state of detected object should be estimated using an optimal filter. To do so, the state distribution is assumed Gaussian. Thus the state vector is estimated by a Kalman filter at each time step. The estimation...

In this paper, we study some functional inequalities (such as Poincaré inequalities, logarithmic Sobolev inequalities, generalized Cheeger isoperimetric inequalities, transportation-information inequalities and transportation-entropy inequalities) for reversible nearest-neighbor Markov processes on a connected finite graph by means of (random) path method. We provide estimates of the involved c...

Metric inequalities, cutset inequalities and Benders feasibility cuts are three families of valid inequalities that have been widely used in different algorithms for network design problems. This article sheds some light on the interrelations between these three families of inequalities. In particular, we show that cutset inequalities are a subset of the Benders feasibility cuts, and that Bende...

In this paper, we derive new families of piecewise linear facet-defining inequalities for the finite group problem and extreme inequalities for the infinite group problem using approximate lifting. The new valid inequalities for the finite group problem are twoand three-slope facet-defining inequalities as well as the first family of four-slope facet-defining inequalities. The new valid inequal...

We consider the polyhedral approach to solving the capacitated facility location problem. The valid inequalities considered are the knapsack, ow cover, e ective capacity, single depot, and combinatorial inequalities. The ow cover, e ective capacity, and single depot inequalities form subfamilies of the general family of submodular inequalities. The separation problem based on the family of subm...

the sustainable development goals (sdgs) offer a unique opportunity for policy-makers to build on the millennium development goals (mdgs) by adopting more sustainable approaches to addressing global development challenges. the delivery of health services is of particular concern. most african countries are unlikely to achieve the health mdgs, however, significant progress has been made particul...
