چکیده

We study algorithms for the minimum mean cycle problem, a parametric version of shortest path feasibility (SPF). The three basic approaches to the problem are cycle-based, binary search, and tree-based. The first two use an SPF algorithm as a subroutine, while the latter uses a parametric approach. When implementing the SPF-based methods, one has a choice of SPF algorithms and incremental optimization strategies. There are also several ways to handle precision issues. This leads to dozens of variants, which we systematically compare. Our experimental setup is more comprehensive than in previous studies. In our experiments, the tree-based method and two implementations of the cycle-based method outperformed other approaches, including binary search.

Spectral-spatial classification of hyperspectral images by combining hierarchical and marker-based Minimum Spanning Forest algorithms

Many researches have demonstrated that the spatial information can play an important role in the classification of hyperspectral imagery. This study proposes a modified spectral–spatial classification approach for improving the spectral–spatial classification of hyperspectral images. In the proposed method ten spatial/texture features, using mean, standard deviation, contrast, homogeneity, corr...

Cycle Time Reduction and Runtime Rebalancing by Reallocating Dependent Tasks

Business Process Management Systems (BPMS) is a complex information system that provides designing, administrating, and improving the business processes. Task allocation to human resources is one of the most important issues which should be managed more efficiently in BPMS. Task allocation algorithms are defined in order to meet the various policies of organizations. The most important of these...

A Novel Experimental Analysis of the Minimum Cost Flow Problem

In the GA approach the parameters that influence its performance include population size, crossover rate and mutation rate. Genetic algorithms are suitable for traversing large search spaces since they can do this relatively fast and because the mutation operator diverts the method away from local optima, which will tend to become more common as the search space increases in size. GA’s are base...

New scaling algorithms for the assignment and minimum mean cycle problems

In this paper we suggest new scaling algorithms for the assignment and minimum mean cycle problems. Our assignment algorithm is based on applying scaling to a hybrid version of the recent auction algorithm of Bertsekas and the successive shortest path algorithm. The algorithm proceeds by relaxing the optimality conditions, and the amount of relaxation is successively reduced to zero. On a netwo...
