The rapid development of technology has led to the implementation of data-driven systems whose performance heavily relies on the amount and type of data. In the latest decades, in the field of bioengineering data management, among others, eye-trackin...

Crude oil resource scheduling is one of the critical issues upstream in the crude oil industry chain. It aims to reduce transportation and inventory costs and avoid alerts of inventory limit violations by formulating reasonable crude oil transportati...

Singular spectrum analysis (SSA) is a non-parametric adaptive technique used for time series analysis. It allows solving various problems related to time series without the need to define a model. In this study, we focus on the problem of trend extra...

The objective is to find a Cellular Automata (CA) rule that can generate “loop patterns”. A loop pattern is given by ones on a zero background showing loops. In order to find out how loop patterns can be locally defined, tentative loop pa...

In bike-sharing systems, the inventory level is defined as the daily number of bicycles required to optimally meet the demand. Estimating these values is a major challenge for bike-sharing operators, as biased inventory levels lead to a reduced quali...

For multimodal multi-objective optimization problems (MMOPs), there are multiple equivalent Pareto optimal solutions in the decision space that are corresponding to the same objective value. Therefore, the main tasks of multimodal multi-objective opt...

This paper proposes two algorithms for clustering data, which are variable-sized sets of elementary items. An example of such data occurs in the analysis of a medical diagnosis, where the goal is to detect human subjects who share common diseases to...

Selecting the appropriate temporary facilities is important for reducing cost and improving the productivity and safety of craft professionals in construction projects. However, the manual planning process for scaffolding systems is typically prone t...

Time series data typically exhibit high dimensionality and complexity, necessitating the use of specific approximation methods to perform computations on the data. The currently employed compression methods suffer from varying degrees of feature loss...

A new algorithm is presented to compute nonrigid, possibly partial comparisons of shapes defined by unstructured triangulations of their surfaces. The algorithm takes as input a pair of surfaces with each surface given by a distinct and unrelated tri...
