In the present study, field goal shooting skills of female basketball players were assessed in the background to their reasoning ability. The sample consists of 100 female intercollegiate basketball players (age = 21.05±1.67 yrs.). Shooting skills reasoning ability were assessed by Johnson’s “Basketball Field Goal Speed Shooting Test” and Mixed Type Group Test of Intelligence prepared by Mehr...

In this paper we study the possibility of generalizing a monocriteria model to a multicriteria partition problem and show the reason why exact algorithms are not efficient in solving the problem. The mathematical model studied is a modified version of a mono-objective model from Mehrotra [1] and applied to the biobjetive case using the ε-constraint method. Research conducted concludes that the ...

In [8] the authors considered a variant of Mehrotra’s predictor-corrector algorithm that has been widely used in several IPMs based optimization packages. By an example they showed that this variant might make very small steps in order to keep the iterate in a certain neighborhood of the central path, that itself implies the inefficiency of the algorithm. This observation motivated them to inco...

The field of disability studies in India is fledgling, yet burgeoning. Professor (Dr) Nilika Mehrotra an exemplary scholar from this field, who has played a pioneering role situating the scholarship on persons with disabilities (PWDs) distinctly South Asian narrative. She not only written extensively experience but brought together important by several academics area recent edited work. Her res...

In this paper we develop a practical primal interior decomposition algorithm for two-stage stochastic programming problems. The framework of this algorithm is similar to the framework in Mehrotra and Özevin [17, 18] and Zhao [30], however their algorithm is altered in a simple yet fundamental way to achieve practical performance. In particular, this new algorithm weighs the log-barrier terms in...

The best known method for determining lower bounds on the vertex coloring number of a graph is the linear-programming column-generation technique first employed by Mehrotra and Trick in 1996. We present an implementation of the method that provides numerically safe results, independent of the floating-point accuracy of linearprogramming software. Our work includes an improved branch-and-bound a...

We propose a primal-dual path-following Mehrotra-type predictor-corrector method for solving convex quadratic semidefinite programming (QSDP) problems. For the special case when the quadratic term has the form 1 2 X •(UXU), we compute the search direction at each iteration from the Schur complement equation. We are able to solve the Schur complement equation efficiently via the preconditioned s...

We extend optimal face identiication methods to bounded variable linear programming problems. Distance to the lower and upper bounds are incorporated into a projection model and Mehrotra{Ye's solution technique to prevent the computed solution from violating the bound constraints. Empirical and theoretical evidence are provided that support use of the new models to compute an exact solution. We...
