1. Abstract Genetic algorithms (GAs) have been widely proposed as an effective optimization tool for dealing with the noisy objective functions that arise in many practical problems. Although quite a few studies have examined GAs in noisy environments using either numerical or other theoretical methods, Markov chain analysis has not been conducted to investigate them (Markov chain analysis has ...

In this paper we restrict every set splitting problem to the special case in which every set has just three elements. This restricted version is also NP-complete. Then, we introduce a general conversion from any set splitting problem to 3-set splitting. Then we introduce a randomize algorithm, and we use Markov chain model for run time complexity analysis of this algorithm. In the last section ...

Objective: To delineate a novel surrogate approach to analyse the ripple component by constructing complex network using Markov model. Methods: Adjacency matrices (A) are constructed from digital storage oscilloscope output signal of Full-Wave (FWR) and Half-Wave Rectifiers (HWR) without with filter. The centrality measures - indegree, outdegree, in closeness, out Weighted Network Clustering Co...

In spite of the fact that the principles of impinging stream reactors have been developed for more than half a century, the performance analysis of such devices, from the viewpoint of the mathematical modeling, has not been investigated extensively. In this study two mathematical models were proposed to describe particulate matter drying in tangential impinging stream dryers. The models were de...
