Forward VNS, Reverse VNS, and Multi-VNS Algorithms for Job-Shop Scheduling Problem [PDF]
Modelling and Simulation in Engineering, 2016 This paper proposes a number of forward VNS and reverse VNS algorithms for job-shop scheduling problem. The forward VNS algorithms are the variable neighborhood search algorithms applied to the original problem (i.e., the problem instance with the ...

Cognitive neurobehavior and synaptic plasticity after vagus nerve stimulation in female rats: Interaction between estrous cycle and neurostimulation [PDF]
Bioelectronic MedicineA single session of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) has been shown to improve cognition in male rodents, but the influence of sex on the effects of VNS on behavior and synaptic plasticity are poorly understood.

Complex network behavior in epileptic patients treated with Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS): VNS responders exhibit a unique pattern, different from VNS non-responders and healthy controls [PDF]
Frontiers in NeuroscienceIntroductionVagus nerve stimulation (VNS) represents an alternative treatment option in drug-resistant epilepsy. VNS patients can be categorized as responders (R, ≥50% seizure reduction) or non-responders (NR, < 50% seizure reduction).

A hybrid VNS matheuristic for a bin packing problem with a color constraint [PDF]
Yugoslav Journal of Operations Research, 2021 We study a new variant of the bin packing problem with a color constraint. Given a finite set of items, each item has a set of colors. Each bin has a color capacity, the total number of colors for a bin is the unification of colors for its items and ...

Reducing VNS stimulation parameters: Is it safe?
Brazilian Neurosurgery, 2022 Introduction Vagal nerve stimulation (VNS) is an adjuvant therapy used in the treatment of patients with refractory epilepsy who are not candidates for resective surgery or who have limited results after surgical procedures.

Stochastic vagus nerve stimulation affects acute heart rate dynamics in rats. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is an approved therapy for treatment of epilepsy and depression. While also shown to be promising in several preclinical and clinical studies to treat cardiovascular diseases, optimal therapeutic stimulation paradigms are ...
