Abstract The significance of last‐mile logistics in the healthcare supply chain is growing steadily, especially in pharmacies where the growing prevalence of medication delivery to patients' homes is remarkable. This paper proposes a novel mathematical model for the last‐mile logistics of the pharmaceutical supply chain and optimizes a pharmacy's ...

A Fuzzy Framework for Realized Volatility Prediction: Empirical Evidence From Equity Markets
ABSTRACT This study introduces a realized volatility fuzzy time series (RV‐FTS) model that applies a fuzzy c‐means clustering algorithm to estimate time‐varying c latent volatility states and their corresponding membership degrees. These memberships are used to construct a fuzzified volatility estimate as a weighted average of cluster centroids.

Metaheuristic Clustering Algorithm
In this thesis we describe an essential problem in data clustering and present some solutions for it. We investigate using distance measures other than Euclidean type for improving the performance of clustering. We also develop a new point symmetry-based distance measure and prove its efficiency.

End‐to‐End Portfolio Optimization with Hybrid Quantum Annealing
This works presents a hybrid quantum‐classical framework for portfolio optimization that combines quantum assisted asset selection and rebalancing with classical weight allocation. The approach processes real market data, embeds it into Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization formulations, and evaluates performance within a unified workflow ...

Gyro fireworks algorithm: A new metaheuristic algorithm
In this paper, a novel Gyro Fireworks Algorithm (GFA) is proposed by simulating the behaviors of gyro fireworks during the display process, which adopts a framework of multi-stage and multiple search strategies. At the beginning of the iteration, the gyro fireworks are full of gunpowder; they move via Lévy flight and spiral rotation, and the sprayed ...

ABSTRACT Understanding watershed water quality dynamics is essential for sustainable management, yet accurate nutrient load prediction remains challenging under strong inter‐annual variability. To address this limitation, this study presents a hybrid modelling framework that integrates baseflow information into a machine‐learning structure to improve ...
