Mining frequent itemsets from the large transactional database is a very critical and important task. Many algorithms have been proposed from past many years, But FP-tree like algorithms are considered as very effective algorithms for efficiently mine frequent item sets. These algorithms considered as efficient because of their compact structure and also for less generation of candidates itemse...

in this paper, a stochastic cell formation problem is studied using queuing theory framework and considering reliability. since cell formation problem is np-hard, two algorithms based on genetic and modified particle swarm optimization (mpso) algorithms are developed to solve the problem. for generating initial solutions in these algorithms, a new heuristic method is developed, which always cre...

nowadays network-on-chips is used instead of system-on-chips for better performance. this paper presents a new algorithm to find a shorter path, and shows that genetic algorithm is a potential technique for solving routing problem for mesh topology in on-chip-network.

in this paper, we develop a capacitated location-covering model considering interval values for demand and service parameters. we also consider flexibility on distance standard for covering demand nodes by the servers. we use the satisfaction degree to represent the constraint of service capacity. the proposed model belongs to the class of mixed integer programming models. our model can be redu...

background: acute appendicitis is one of the common and urgent illnesses among children.  children usually are unable to help the physicians completely due to weakness in describing the medical history. moreover, acute appendicitis overlaps with conditions of other diseases in terms of symptoms and signs in the first hours of presentation. these conditions lead to unwanted biases as well as err...

The optimal allocation of a chain-like task system on a chain-like network computers has been studied in a number of papers 1]]2]]3]]4]. The best known algorithm has a time complexity of O((m 0 ? n) 2 n) if m ? n = O(p log n); otherwise O(m 0 log m 0 + m 0 (m 0 ? n)) where m 0 and n denote the number of un-mergeable modules and the number of processors respectivelyy4]. The space complexity of H...

Electromagnetism-like (EML) algorithm is a new evolutionary algorithm that bases on the electromagnetic attraction and repulsion among particles. It was originally proposed to solve optimization problems with bounded variables. Since its inception, many variants of the EML algorithm have been proposed in the literature. However, it remains unclear how to simulate the electromagnetic heuristics ...

This paper describes a technique for reducing the querytime cost of HITS-like ranking algorithm. The basic idea is to compute for each node in the web graph a summary of its immediate neighborhood (which is a query-independent operation and thus can be done off-line), and to approximate the neighborhood graph of a result set at query-time by combining the summaries of the result set nodes. This...

Applying the superfast divide-and-conquer MBA algorithm for generally singular n × n Toeplitz-like or Hankel-like integer input matrices, we perform computations in the ring of integers modulo a power of a fixed prime, especially power of 2. This is practically faster than computing modulo a random prime but requires additional care to avoid degeneration, particularly at the stages of compressi...

In this paper we consider the problem of computing market equilibria in the Fisher setting for utility models such as spending constraint and perfect, price-discrimination which are inspired from modern e-commerce settings and attempt to bridge the gap between the computationally hard, but realistic, separable, piecewise-linear and concave utility model and the tractable, but less relevant, lin...
