This paper deals with the nonlinear complementarity problem on the product space of unit simplices, S. A simplicial variable dimension algorithm developed by van der Laan and Talman for proper ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract We consider the optimal stopping problem for g(Zn), where Zn, n = 1,2,..., is a homogeneous Markov sequence. An algorithm, called forward ...

FSNet is a new problem-solving tool that can find the optimal solution to an extremely complex problem without violating any of the problem’s many constraints. Developed at MIT, FSNet could help power ...

One of the most difficult problems in the field of genomics is assembling short "reads" of DNA into complete chromosomes. Now an interdisciplinary group of genome and computer scientists has solved ...

Of the many skills leaders need to be effective, research consistently shows that complex problem solving is paramount. For most of us, however, solving difficult problems and selling the solutions ...

The mathematician and the mayor have little in common, but each would like to bridge the gap. Mayors are absorbed by the idea that data can anticipate traffic jams and crowded trains. Mathematicians ...

We have met our match at the genteel pastime of jigsaw puzzles. It seems an algorithm can now whiz through 10,000 pieces in 24 hours. The speedy solver could also help piece together shredded ...
