Operator-level GPU-Accelerated Branch and Bound Algorithms

open access: yesProcedia Computer Science, 2013
AbstractBranch-and-Bound (B&B) algorithms are well-known tree-based exploratory methods for solving to optimality NP-hard discrete optimization problems. The construction of the B&B tree and its exploration are performed using four operators: branching, bounding, selection and pruning.

A Novel Method for the Absolute Pose Problem with Pairwise Constraints

open access: yes, 2019
Absolute pose estimation is a fundamental problem in computer vision, and it is a typical parameter estimation problem, meaning that efforts to solve it will always suffer from outlier-contaminated data.

Space-Efficient Parallel Algorithms for Combinatorial Search Problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We present space-efficient parallel strategies for two fundamental combinatorial search problems, namely, backtrack search and branch-and-bound, both involving the visit of an $n$-node tree of height $h$ under the assumption that a node can be accessed ...

A branch and bound and simulated annealing approach for job shop scheduling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This paper presents two approaches to the solution of the job shop scheduling problem, namely the branch and bound, and simulated annealing approach. The objective is to schedule the jobs on the machines so that the total completion time is minimized. In

Multimodal Mechanical Testing of Additively Manufactured Ti6Al4V Lattice Structures: Compression, Bending, and Fatigue

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
In this experimental study, the mechanical properties of additively manufactured Ti‐6Al‐4V lattice structures of different geometries are characterized using compression, four point bending and fatigue testing. While TPMS designs show superior fatigue resistance, SplitP and Honeycomb lattice structures combine high stiffness and strength. The resulting
