چکیده

Motivated by an application in assortment planning under the nested logit choice model, we develop a polynomial-time approximation scheme for the sum-of-ratios optimization problem with a capacity constraint and a fixed number of product groups.

An Efficient Hybrid Metaheuristic for Capacitated p-Median Problem

Capacitated p-median problem (CPMP) is a well-known facility-location problem, in which p capacitated facility points are selected to satisfy n demand points in such a way that the total assigned demand to each facility does not exceed its capacity. Minimizing the total sum of distances between each demand point and its nearest facility point is the objective of the problem. Developing an effic...

Sum-Rate Maximization Based on Power Constraints for Cooperative AF Relay Networks

In this paper, our objective is maximizing total sum-rate subject to power constraints on total relay transmit power or individual relay powers, for amplify-and-forward single-antenna relay-based wireless communication networks. We derive a closed-form solution for the total power constraint optimization problem and show that the individual relay power constraints optimization problem is a quad...

MAX-CSP, Graph Cuts and Statistical Physics

Baker’s technique, which was created over three decades ago, is a powerful tool for designing polynomial time approximation schemes (PTAS) for NP-hard optimization problems on planar graphs and their generalizations. In this paper, we propose a unified framework to formulate the optimization problems where the local constraints of these problems are encoded by functions attached on the vertices...

Exact and Approximation Algorithms for Geometric and Capacitated Set Cover Problems with Applications

First, we study geometric variants of the standard set cover motivated by assignment of directional antenna and shipping with deadlines, providing the first known polynomial-time exact solutions. Next, we consider the following general capacitated set cover problem. There is given a set of elements with real weights and a family S of sets of elements. One can use a set if it is a subset of one ...

A Vibration Damping Optimization Algorithm for Solving the Single-item Capacitated Lot-sizing Problem with Fuzzy Parameters

In this paper, we propose a vibration damping optimization algorithm to solve a fuzzy mathematical model for the single-item capacitated lot-sizing problem. At first, a fuzzy mathematical model for the single-item capacitated lot-sizing problem is presented. The possibility approach is chosen to convert the fuzzy mathematical model to crisp mathematical model. The obtained crisp model is in the...
