This study is devoted to the formulation of the network design problem of one-way streets and the application of simulated annealing (SA) algorithm to solve this problem for a large real network. It discusses some points of views on one-way street networks, the objective function used for design, the way in which design constraints may be considered, and the traffic problems concerning one-way ...

design of a logistics network in proper way provides a proper platform for efficient and effective supply chain management. this paper studies a multi-period, multi echelon and multi-product integrated forward-reverse logistics network under uncertainty. first, an efficient complex mixed-integer linear programming (milp) model by considering some real-world assumptions is developed for the inte...

Rationale and Objective. To compare logistic regression and artificial neural network for computer-aided diagnosis on breast sonograms. Materials and Methods. Ultrasound images of 24 malignant and 30 benign masses were analyzed quantitatively for margin sharpness, margin echogenicity, and angular variation in margin. These features and age of patients were used with two pattern classifiers, log...

The use of social network analysis (SNA) in the design of expert recommendation systems is becoming increasingly popular. However, the experts recommended from such systems often do not meet users’ needs since the network semantic information is largely ignored. In this study, we used conditional logistic analysis to quantitatively examine the semantics of two social networks in a large open so...
