Evaluating Typical Algorithms of Combinatorial Optimization to Solve Continuous-Time Based Scheduling Problem

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2018
We consider one approach to formalize the Resource-Constrained Project Scheduling Problem (RCPSP) in terms of combinatorial optimization theory. The transformation of the original problem into combinatorial setting is based on interpreting each operation

Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Survival in Western Kenya: Reduction in Early Deaths and Treatment Abandonment

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background An earlier study on children diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) at Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital (MTRH) in Kenya reported a low event‐free survival (EFS), excess treatment abandonment, and high induction mortality.

Combinatorial optimization problems with conflict graphs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Conflict graphs impose disjunctive constraints for pairs of jobs, items, edges or other objects in a combinatorial optimization problem. Equivalently, the feasible domain of the considered problem is restricted to stable sets in the given conflict graph.

Differential evolution for permutation-based combinatorial problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The chapter clarifies the differences between wide-sense combinatorial optimization and strict-sense combinatorial optimization and then presents a number of combinatorial problems encountered in practice.

Iterative quantum algorithm for combinatorial optimization based on quantum gradient descent

open access: yesResults in Physics
Combinatorial optimization has wide and high-value applications in many fields of science and industry, but solving general combinatorial optimization problems is non-deterministic polynomial time (NP) hard.

On Hierarchical Composite Endpoints in Pediatric Cancer Supportive Care: Illustrative Examples From Two Multi‐Center Phase‐III Randomized Clinical Trials

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric supportive care clinical trials often involve multiple clinically important outcomes, complicating trial interpretation. Hierarchical composite endpoints (HCEs) provide a framework to integrate key outcomes according to clinical importance.

The bandpass problem: combinatorial optimization and library of problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A combinatorial optimization problem, called the Bandpass Problem, is introduced. Given a rectangular matrix A of binary elements {0,1} and a positive integer B called the Bandpass Number, a set of B consecutive non-zero elements in any column is called ...

Combinatorial Optimization with Competing Agents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This chapter deals with three specific studies conducted within the combinatorial optimization for competing agents (COCA) project. It also deals with optimization problems arising from the relationship between members of a social network.
