Sentence examples for methods branch from inspiring English sources

Furthermore, a greedy heuristic and a fix-and-optimize heuristic based on simulated annealing and exact methods (Branch & Bound and cutting methods) are proposed to solve the model.

Even though global optimization techniques (e.g., exhaustive search-based solution methods, branch and bound method) can be adapted to find the optimal solution of problem (5), the complexity of these approaches grows exponentially with the size of the network.

In this paper, we use tabu search to solve this feature selection problem and compare it with classic algorithms, such as sequential methods, branch and bound method, etc., and most other suboptimal methods proposed recently, such as genetic algorithm and sequential forward (backward) floating search methods.

For the SD, NN, and NJ methods, branch lengths were multiplied by the number of sites and rounded to the nearest integer.

To ensure that the simulated trees were resolvable, which facilitates comparison of methods (but inflates the accuracy of all methods), branch lengths of less than 0.001 were replaced with values of 0.001, which corresponds to roughly one substitution across the internal branch, as the 16S alignment has 1,287 positions.

Participants are also sent a DHQ which is a food frequency questionnaire that was developed by staff at the Risk Factor Monitoring and Methods Branch at the National Cancer Institute and reflects Canadian food availability and food fortification practices [ 47].

If both conditions in line 16 and line 21 are not met, then the method branches out and prunes the current.

The simulation results obtained by our proposed GA were compared with those obtained by two other stochastic search methods, namely simulated annealing (SA) and Tabu search (TS), as well as a nonlinear integer programming-based method, branch-and-bound (BB).

This paper proposes the solution by DE of process engineering problems and compares its computational performance with an exact optimization method (Branch-and-Bound) and with a Genetic Algorithm.

Further, using a finite element method, branching was determined to occur only at locations where dynamic biochemical and biophysical cues reinforced each other, and the magnitude of mechanical stress at branching sites correlated with the extent of branching.

We checked if there were any cases of relaxed selection or positive selection for NMD candidates based on data from a previous study [ 62], which used a sensitive method (branch-site model in PAML [ 63, 64]) to detect positive selection sites in human and chimp genes.
