due to business and environmental issues, the efficient design of an integrated forward/reverse logistics network has recently attracted more attention from researchers. the significance of transportation cost and customer satisfaction spurs an interest in developing a flexible network design model with different delivery paths. this paper proposes a flexible mixed-integer programming model to ...

one of the problems in the ground-based circular synthetic aperture radar is the dependence of the azimuth resolution to the antenna rotation radius and operational limitation of increasing it. to enhance the image quality in azimuth, model-based image formation through three methods: matched filter, inverse filter and optimum filter is suggested and analyzed. for the purpose of comparison, thr...

in this paper by combining caching and replication techniques proposed a hybrid heuristic method based on the greedy algorithm to use the benefit of each other techniques. the algorithm in each interaction compares all the contents and one that made the best benefit value is selected for replication. the hybrid approach tested in a simulation environment and the results show that hybrid algorit...

periodic vehicle routing problem focuses on establishing a plan of visits to clients over a given time horizon so as to satisfy some service level while optimizing the routes used in each time period. this paper presents a new effective heuristic algorithm based on data mining tools for periodic vehicle routing problem (pvrp). the related results of proposed algorithm are compared with the resu...

biomedical datasets usually include a large number of features relative to the number of samples. however, some data dimensions may be less relevant or even irrelevant to the output class. selection of an optimal subset of features is critical, not only to reduce the processing cost but also to improve the classification results. to this end, this paper presents a hybrid method of filter and wr...

in this paper we proposed a cellular automaton based local algorithm to solve the autonomously sensor gathering problem in mobile wireless sensor networks (mwsn). in this problem initially the connected mobile sensors deployed in the network and goal is gather all sensors into one location. the sensors decide to move only based on their local information. cellular automaton (ca) as dynamical sy...

In this paper, the investment portfolio is formed based on the data mining algorithm of CHAID on the basis of the risk status criteria. In the next step, the second investment portfolio is created based on the decision rules extracted by the DEA-BCC model. The final portfolio is created through a two-objective mathematical programming model based on the Imperialist Competitive algorithm.

this study emphasized the ability of genetic algorithm and cellular automate to simulate urban land use changes by integrating adaptive model. the most important part of modeling is to define transition rules.  in this research, a cellular automata model in dinamica ego software was used coupled with genetic algorithm. according to disability of the software for manipulating large number of var...
