Hardness of submodular cost allocation : lattice matching and a simplex coloring conjecture [PDF]
We consider the Minimum Submodular Cost Allocation (MSCA) problem. In this problem, we are given k submodular cost functions f1, ... , fk: 2V -> R+ and the goal is to partition V into k sets A1, ..., Ak so as to minimize the total cost sumi = 1,k fi(Ai).

ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Approximation Algorithms for Correlated Knapsack Orienteering [PDF]
We consider the correlated knapsack orienteering (CorrKO) problem: we are given a travel budget B, processing-time budget W, finite metric space (V,d) with root ρ ∈ V, where each vertex is associated with a job with possibly correlated random size and ...

Approximation Algorithms for Clustering Problems with Lower Bounds and Outliers [PDF]
We consider clustering problems with non-uniform lower bounds and outliers, and obtain the first approximation guarantees for these problems. We have a set F of facilities with lower bounds {L_i}_{i in F} and a set D of clients located in a common metric

Approaches to enthalpy approximation in numerical simulation of two-component alloy solidification
The paper deals with the numerical modelling of solidification of two- component metal alloys. The numerical model was worked out using the enthalpy formulation of solidification and the finite element method.

ABSTRACT Introduction This final analysis of a multicenter, prospective postmarketing surveillance study evaluated the safety of daprodustat in patients with chronic kidney disease anemia in routine clinical practice in Japan. Methods Patients who initiated daprodustat between September 2020 and July 2022 were registered.

Bi-Fuzzy S-Approximation Spaces
The S-approximation spaces are significant extension of the rough set model and have been widely applied in intelligent decision-making. However, traditional S-approximation spaces are limited to two crisp universes, whereas bi-fuzzy universes (i.e., two

APPLICATIONS OF ROUGH SOFT TO EXTENSIONS SEMIHYPERGROUPS INDUCED BY OPERATORS AND CORRESPONDING DECISION-MAKING METHODS [PDF]
In this paper, we apply a rough soft set to a spe-cial algebraic hyperstructure, and give the concept of a rough soft semihypergroup. We propose the notion of lower and upper approximations concerning a special semihypergroup and obtain some properties ...

ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an established home‐based kidney replacement therapy (KRT), but its uptake remains low in Japan. We evaluated whether individualized education in a dedicated outpatient clinic was associated with the initiation of PD.
