By developing a constraint that looks at the usefulness of complete members, rather than just elements, local optima are shown to be avoided.
Li et al. ([2009b]) developed a constraint-softened interval-fuzzy linear programming (CS-IFLP) method for violation analysis of waste management systems, which can deal with uncertainties presented in terms of fuzzy sets and intervals, allow fuzzy relaxation levels for system constraints, and help to analyze tradeoffs among economic objectives, satisfaction degrees, and constraint-violation risk.
In that study we developed a constraint-based modeling framework [ 8], called flux balance analysis with macromolecular crowding (FBAwMC).
In this study, we developed a constraint-based modeling framework permitting to investigate systematically the metabolic interactions between gut microbes and their host, and demonstrated using mouse and B. thetaiotaomicron.
To make LDPC codes work in harmony with the noncoherent differential decoder of interest, here we develop a convergence-constraint density evolution method.
We develop a boundary-constraint method for constructing the vortex-surface field (VSF) in a three-dimensional fluid velocity vorticity field.
Then, we develop a method for constraint implementation for the UKF and the EnKF that yields faster convergence than the conventional projection method.
Furthermore, we develop a terminal equality constraint for LEMPC that can ensure that the performance of LEMPC is at least as good as that of a Lyapunov-based controller in finite-time and in infinite-time.
We design a route to minimize the risks from the natural accident and the uncertainty of a terrorist threat, and develop a fuzzy-stochastic constraint programming method to deal with multiple uncertainties presented in terms of fuzzy sets, interval values and random variables which representing the probabilities and fatality rates of the terrorist attacking.
The object of the constitutional stage is to develop a system of constraints that will allow individuals to peacefully co-exist, what Buchanan calls the "protective state" (2000 [1975]).
which was introduced by Thompson [8] as a depensatory generalization of the Beverton-Holt stock-recruitment relationship, was used to develop a set of constraints designed to safeguard against overfishing.
