Advertising network formation based on stochastic diffusion search and market equilibria

چکیده
The concept of social networks in conjunction with concepts from economics has attracted considerable attention in recent years. In this paper we propose the Stochastic Diffusion Market Search (SDMS), a novel contextual advertising method for mutual advertisement hosting among participating entities, where each owns a web site. In the scenario considered each participating agent/web-site buys or sells advertising links. In the proposed method the advertising market and network that formed into the system emerge from agents preferences and their social behavior into the network. SDMS consists of a variation of Stochastic Diffusion Search, a swarm intelligence metaheuristic, and an algorithm for market equilibria. We present an evaluation of the model and the experimental results show that the network potentially converges to a stable stage and the distribution of market prices adheres to power law properties.

A stochastic network design of bulky waste recycling – a hybrid harmony search approach based on sample approximation
Facing supply uncertainty of bulky wastes, the capacitated multi-product stochastic network design model for bulky waste recycling is proposed in this paper. The objective of this model is to minimize the first-stage total fixed costs and the expected value of the second-stage variable costs. The possibility of operation costs and transportation costs for bulky waste recycling is considered ...

Radial Basis Function Neural Networks (RBF NNs) are one of the most applicable NNs in the classification of real targets. Despite the use of recursive methods and gradient descent for training RBF NNs, classification improper accuracy, failing to local minimum and low-convergence speed are defects of this type of network. In order to overcome these defects, heuristic and meta-heuristic algorith...
