Online Knapsack Problem under Expected Capacity Constraint
Online knapsack problem is considered, where items arrive in a sequential fashion that have two attributes; value and weight. Each arriving item has to be accepted or rejected on its arrival irrevocably.

Abstract Prolonged exposure to weightlessness leads to loss of muscle and bone mass. Therefore, astronauts on board the International Space Station (ISS) currently perform mandatory daily exercises. ISS missions usually last 6 months, and future missions will become significantly longer when going, for example, to Mars.

Abstract The Guinea Savanna zone of many countries constitutes a critical cashew‐producing area. Despite its importance, data‐driven recommendations on optimal tree spacing remain largely unavailable to farmers in Ghana. This knowledge gap constrains productivity, reduces returns on investment, and affects farmer interest and ultimately the long‐term ...

Sensitivity analysis of the greedy heuristic for binary knapsack problems [PDF]
Greedy heuristics are a popular choice of heuristics when we have to solve a large variety of NP -hard combinatorial problems. In particular for binary knapsack problems, these heuristics generate good results.

MaxHedge: Maximising a Maximum Online [PDF]
We introduce a new online learning framework where, at each trial, the learner is required to select a subset of actions from a given known action set. Each action is associated with an energy value, a reward and a cost.

Soybean and tobacco response to sublethal rates of herbicides used along roadsides
Abstract Herbicides are one of the primary tools for vegetation management along roadsides. However, the drift of particles and vapors from herbicide applications along roadsides can cause damage and yield loss in adjacent sensitive crops. The objective of this research was to investigate the response of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] and tobacco ...

Identification and genomic location of resistance to bacterial leaf streak of barley
Abstract The bacterial leaf streak (BLS) disease of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), caused by Xanthomonas translucens pv. translucens (Xtt), has become increasingly important worldwide in recent years. Inefficacy of chemical control methods leaves deployment of host resistance to be the only option to manage this disease.

Coefficients of Sylvester's Denumerant [PDF]
For a given sequence $\mathbf{\alpha} = [\alpha_1,\alpha_2,\dots,\alpha_{N+1}]$ of $N+1$ positive integers, we consider the combinatorial function $E(\mathbf{\alpha})(t)$ that counts the nonnegative integer solutions of the equation $\alpha_1x_1+\alpha_2

Spotting Difficult Weakly Correlated Binary Knapsack Problems [PDF]
In this paper, we examine the possibility of quickly deciding whether or not an instance of a binary knapsack problem is difficult for branch and bound algorithms.
