Integer programming for improving radiotherapy treatment efficiency
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Patients received by radiotherapy departments are diverse and may be diagnosed with different cancers. Therefore, they need different radiotherapy treatment plans and thus have different needs for medical resources. This research aims to explore the best method of scheduling the admission of patients receiving radiotherapy so as to reduce patient loss and maximize the usa...
متن کاملImproving the efficiency of a mixed integer linear programming based approach for multi-class classification problem
Data classification is one of the fundamental issues in data mining and machine learning. A great deal of effort has been done for reducing the time required to learn a classification model. In this research, a new model and algorithm is proposed to improve the work of Xu and Papageorgiou (2009). Computational comparisons on real and simulated patterns with different characteristics (including ...
متن کاملAn Integer Linear Programming Model for the Radiotherapy Treatment Scheduling Problem
Radiotherapy represents an important phase of treatment for a large number of cancer patients. It is essential that resources used to deliver this treatment are employed effectively. This paper presents a new integer linear programming model for real-world radiotherapy treatment scheduling and analyses the effectiveness of using this model on a daily basis in a hospital. Experiments are conduct...
متن کاملALTERNATIVE MIXED INTEGER PROGRAMMING FOR FINDING EFFICIENT BCC UNIT
Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) cannot provide adequate discrimination among efficient decision making units (DMUs). To discriminate these efficient DMUs is an interesting research subject. The purpose of this paper is to develop the mix integer linear model which was proposed by Foroughi (Foroughi A.A. A new mixed integer linear model for selecting the best decision making units in data envelo...
متن کاملA new approach for solving neutrosophic integer programming problems
Linear programming is one of the most important usages of operation research methods in real life, that includes of one objective function and one or several constraints which can be in the form of equality and inequality. Most of the problems in the real world are include of inconsistent and astute uncertainty, because of this reason we can’t obtain the optimal solution easily. In this paper, ...
