Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeta Heuristic Algorithms for Vehicle Routing Problem with Stochastic DemandsGeetha Shanmugam, Poonthalir Ganesan, Dr. P.T. VanathiProblem statement: The shipment of goods from manufacturer to the consumer is a focal point of distribution logistics. In reality, the demand of consumers is not known a priori. This kind of distribution is dealt by Stochastic Vehicle Routing Problem (SVRP) which is a NP-hard problem. In this proposed work, VRP with stochastic demand is considered. A probability distribution is … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 8,021 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Independent Rough Set Approach Hybrid with Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm for Dimensionality ReductionNambiraj Suguna, Keppana Gowder ThanushkodiProblem statement: Dimensionality reduction is viewed as an important pre-processing step for pattern recognition and data mining. As the classical rough set model considers the entire attribute set as a whole to find the subset, comparing all possible combinations of sets of attributes is difficult. Approach: In this study, we have introduced an improved Rough Set-based Attribute Reduction (RSAR) namely … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 25 Mar 2011 · 8,334 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegration of Artificial Neural Network and Expert System for Material Classification of Natural Fibre Reinforced Polymer CompositesBasheer Ahmed Ahmed Ali, Mohd Sapuan Salit, Edi Syams Zainudin, Mohamed OthmanDiversified choice of materials from natural fibre reinforced polymer composites with similar properties complicate the materials selection for engineering products. Implementation of expert system alone makes it difficult to scrutinize the vast selected materials. Hybrid of expert system with neural network technology is desired. Classification of material through neural network under various criteria influences the decision in narrowing down the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 29 Apr 2015 · 7,433 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Analysis and Overview of Wireless Routing ProtocolsN. Dhanalakshmi, P. AlliProblem statement: In the past, the main focus of the research in the wireless network is to provide optimal routes between source and destination nodes. The wireless routing is required additional computational effort than wired routing in order to fulfill the major wireless characteristics such as battery power constraints, frequent mobility and less processing. Approach: In addition to wired routing … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 17 Jan 2012 · 7,628 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Hyper Clustering Algorithms in Mobile Network PlanningLamiaa Fattouh Ibrahim, Hesham A. SalmanProblem statement: As a large amount of data stored in spatial databases, people may like to find groups of data which share similar features. Thus cluster analysis becomes an important area of research in data mining. Applications of clustering analysis have been utilized in many fields, such as when we search to construct a cluster served by base station in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 30 Aug 2011 · 7,504 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpatial Color Indexing: An Efficient and Robust Technique for Content-Based Image RetrievalRachid Alaoui, Said Ouatik El Alaoui, Mohammed MeknassiProblem statement: Color Histogram is admitted as a useful representation of features because it is a statistical result and possesses the merits of simplicity, robustness and efficiency. However, the main problem with color histogram indexing is that it doesn't take into account the spatial information. Previous researches have proved that the effectiveness of image retrieval increases when spatial feature of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,418 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExploring Strategies for Parallel Computing of RS Data Assimilation with SWAP-GAShamim Akhter, Kiyoshi Honda, Yann Chemin, Putchong UthayopasAn agro-hydrological simulation model is useful for agriculture monitoring. One issue in running such model is parameter identification, especially when the target area is large such as provincial or country level. Remote Sensing (RS) provides us with useful information over large area. RS cannot observe input parameters of agro-hydrological models directly. However, a method to estimate input parameters of such … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2007 · 7,209 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficient Maintenance Scheduler for Near Optimum Utilization of Oil TanksFawaz S. Al-Anzi, Khaled Al-ZamelDue to the entry of Kuwait into WTO and the expected liberalization of petroleum management, the oil market is to become more competitive. However, the space limitation and public increasing awareness of environmental protection issues and stricter regulation passed by Environmental Public Authority (EPA) in Kuwait make the need for full utilization of oil tanks a prime requirement of a … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,515 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEnhancing Brazilian Portuguese Textual Entailment Recognition with a Hybrid ApproachAllan de Barcelos Silva, Sandro José RigoPrevious work on textual entailment has not fully exploited aspects of deep linguistic relations, which have been shown as containing important information for entailment identification. In this study, we present a new method to compute semantic textual similarity between two sentences. Our proposal relies on the integration of a set of deep linguistic relations, lexical aspects and distributed representational resources. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 7 · 12 Jul 2018 · 8,928 accessesView PDF Cite
