Towards a Theory of Randomized Search Heuristics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
There is a well-developed theory about the algorithmic complexity of optimization problems. Complexity theory provides negative results which typically are based on assumptions like NP≠P or NP≠RP. Positive results are obtained by the design and analysis of clever algorithms. These algorithms are well-tuned for their specific domain.

Effects of Causal Beliefs About Gout on Public Views About Gout Management: A Randomized Experimental Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Despite well‐described biologic causes, the public views unhealthy lifestyle choices as the primary cause of gout. This study investigated how causal beliefs about gout influence the public's views about its management. Methods In a randomized study, 201 members of the public viewed one of two 2‐minute videos about gout.

Optimal geometrical design of reshaping berm breakwaters based on minimizing administrative costs (Case Study: Farasakoo Breakwater) [PDF]

open access: yesمحیط زیست و مهندسی آب, 2016
So far, many studies have been done to design reshaping berm breakwaters (RBB) that mostly have provided the effect of individual parameter on structure stability. Accordingly, the presentation of systematic optimal geometrical design of RBB is necessary.

Random mappings with Ewens cycle structure

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper we consider a random mapping, $\hat{T}_{n,\theta}$, of thefinite set $\{1,2,...,n\}$ into itself for which the digraphrepresentation $\hat{G}_{n,\theta}$ is constructed by: (1) selecting a randomnumber, $\hat{L}_n$, of cyclic vertices, (2 ...

Artificial Intelligence in Systemic Sclerosis: Clinical Applications, Challenges, and Future Directions

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare autoimmune disease defined by immune dysregulation, vasculopathy, and progressive fibrosis of the skin and internal organs. Despite advances in care, major complications such as interstitial lung disease (ILD) and myocardial involvement remain the leading causes of morbidity and mortality.

Perceived Impacts and Predictors of Cannabis Products Used by Patients with Rheumatologic Conditions in Alberta, Canada: A Multivariable Analysis of Cross‐Sectional Survey Data

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This study aimed to characterize cannabis product choices (cannabinoid content and formulation) among patients with rheumatologic conditions and their associations with patient factors, patient‐reported perceived side effects, and positive impacts.
