Here, we take an even more general approach that also avoids creating these same duplicate nodes by reduction to minimum-cost flow.
Finally, we show how to solve the resulting optimization problem efficiently via reduction to minimum-cost maximum-flow, and describe a straightforward cross-entropy based algorithm for fitting parameters of the model.
We propose an approach for solving this problem based on reduction to minimum-cost maximum-flow and apply a cross-entropy based learning algorithm to tune the weights of our scross-entropy based
Fixed temperature reduction 2. Biofeedback systems which vary dialysate temperature to deliver either; a. no overall change in the patient's blood temperature (isothermic dialysis) b. lowering of the patient's blood temperature (hypothermic dialysis) 3. Sequential fixed temperature reduction to a minimum of 35°C or the minimum tolerated above 35°C.
We believe that military spending is politically counterproductive to a society's advance, so we demand its reduction to a minimum.
Measures imposed by the troika, including a 22 percent reduction to the minimum monthly wage of 751 euros, or about $930, and the abolition of collective labor contracts, would be revoked, Mr. Tsipras said.
When the correlation coefficient is less than 1, we make a reduction to the Minimum Color Single-Path (MCSiP) problem, which is NP-hard [18].
Three main ideas were the pillars of the development activities: the reduction of the geometrical filament size down to 2 μm, the use of CuMn resistive barriers to reduce the inter filament coupling currents, and the reduction to the minimum allowable value of the twist pitch.
For the followers of the participatory model, in this way real improvement in the conditions of many social groups is also possible, through the redistribution of material resources and the reduction to a minimum (or if possible complete elimination) of bureaucratic power, not democratically responsible, both in public and private life.
We use a reduction to the Minimum Vertex Cover problem to find all minimal sets of up to k edges that eliminate all the squares in the graph.
As a result, the commission is considering a proposal that would allow judges to remove prison time in excess of the old statutory minimum sentences, but such inmates would still not be eligible for a reduction to the new minimum sentences established by the 2010 law.
