Random forest regression for catalyst performance prediction and validation of tri‐reforming of methane (TRM)

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Carbon dioxide‐reduced hydrogen can be synthesized through various methods such as dry‐reforming (DRM), steam reforming (SMR), and partial oxidation (POX). Tri‐reforming of methane (TRM) is a promising technology which combines all the above‐mentioned processes for the simultaneous production of hydrogen and syngas with high energy efficiency.

Metaheuristic algorithms for the quadratic assignment problem

2013 IEEE Symposium on Computational Intelligence in Production and Logistics Systems (CIPLS), 2013
This paper presents two meta-heuristic algorithms to solve the quadratic assignment problem. The iterated greedy algorithm has two main components, which are destruction and construction procedures. The algorithm starts from an initial solution and then iterates through a main loop, where first a partial candidate solution is obtained by removing a ...
