Abstract:

In this research effort, we study three exterior penalty function approaches for solving linear programming problems. These methods are an active set l2 penalty approach (ASL2), an inequality-equality based l2 penalty approach (IEL2), and an augmented Lagrangian approach (ALAG). Particular effective variants are presented for each method, along with comments and experience on alternative algorithmic strategies that were empirically investigated. Our motivation is to examine the relative performance of these different approaches based on the basic l2 penalty function in order to provide insi

Abstract:

The cluster orchestration tool Kubernetes enables easy deployment and reproducibility of life science research by utilizing the advantages of the container technology. The container technology allows for easy tool creation, sharing and runs on any Linux system once it has been built. The applicability of Kubernetes as an approach to run bioinformatic workflows was evaluated and resulted in some examples of how Kubernetes and containers could be used within the field of life science and how they should not be used. The resulting examples serves as proof of concepts and the general idea of how i

Abstract:

The present study compares two types of treatments designed to reduce suicidal ideations: social problem-solving therapy and supportive therapy. Social problem-solving therapy is based on research indicating that suicidal individuals have deficits in problem-solving skills in general and in interpersonal problem-solving skills, in particular. Supportive therapy was chosen as a comparative treatment to control for nonspecific effects of problem-solving therapy and to provide an ethical alternative treatment. The results indicated that problem-solving therapy was more effective than supportive

Abstract:

Cosmic reionization is a phase in the history of the universe that is still not understood completely. Among the different theories regarding what could have been the cause of this process, young star-forming galaxies stand out as the most likely candidate. In order to determine if the galaxies of the reionization era could have been the source of the required radiation, it is necessary to determine their escape fraction of Lyman continuum photons. Since this key property cannot be measured for the galaxies of interest, methods of probing it indirectly are required. The foundation of such indi

The market for electrical devices still continues to increase all over the world and as a consequence the quantity of waste in the category of electronics rises. A huge proportion of the electronic waste is exported from the industrial countries to developing countries, in order to save costs, and also because of too few recycling plants in industrial countries. The significant environmental and social problem in this context is that the electronic devices are mostly recycled in informal plants. Thereby the burden for the people as well as the environment increases because e-waste includes a l

Abstract:

In this thesis, we introduce a novel approach to solving MAX-SAT problems. This algorithm clusters good solutions, and restarts the search from the closest feasible configuration to the centroid of each cluster. We call this method Clustered-Landscape Guided Hopping (CLGH). In addition, where clustering does not provide an advantage due to the non-clustered landscape configuration, we use Averaged-Landscape Guided Hopping (ALGH). CLGH is shown to be highly efficient for finding good solutions of large MAX-SAT problems. Systematic studies of the landscape are presented to show that the success

They also rated their solutions on quality. Subjects in the hierarchical condition produced more solutions than those in brainstorming. Moreover, those in the

An algorithm for solving the large-scale Traveling Salesman Problem is presented. Research into past work in the area of Hopfield neural network use in solving the Traveling Salesman Problem has yielded design ideas that have been incorporated into this work. The algorithm consists of an unsupervised learning algorithm and a recursive Hopfield neural network. The unsupervised learning algorithm was used to decompose the problem into clusters. The recursive Hopfield neural network was applied to the centroids of the clusters, then to the cities in each cluster, in order to find an optimal path.

Abstract:

博士<br>國立清華大學<br>工業工程與工程管理學系<br>90<br>Linear bilevel programming (BLP) problem is a special case of multilevel programming problem, which is a mathematical programming model for decentralized decision problems. In a linear BLP problem, the higher and the lower levels objective functions are both linear functions and the constraints region is a convex set, however, the rational reaction set (or, the feasible set) is generally nonconvex. Hence the linear BLP problem is mathematically classified as a nonlinear optimization problem. In this dissertation, based on primal and primal-dual

Abstract:

碩士<br>大葉大學<br>工業工程研究所<br>86<br>packing and cutting irregular objects are difficulties frequently faced by the industries, such as shoes making, textile, steel, clothing,and furniture, etc. As it is known, cutting down material cost would make enterprise more competitive. Many researchers hence devote on developing algorithms to solve this so called cutting and packing problem, in order to obtain a good (optimal or near optimal) pattern in an acceptable time. Due to its being NP hard-type problem, optimization approach can hardly solve a real sized problems. Heuristic approaches are hence
