Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImplementation Weather-Type Models of Capacitated Arc Routing Problem via HeuristicsZuhaimy Ismail, Mohammad Fadzli RamliProblem statement: In this study, we introduced a new and real-life condition of Capacitated Arc Routing Problem (CARP), a model that represents vehicle’s operation in waste collection. In general, we studied the element of rain drops that affected the collected waste weight in total by imposed a new variable namely rainy weight age. In rainy days, the household refusals did … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Apr 2011 · 7,267 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Evolving Autoregressive Predictor for Time Series ForecastingDe Z. Li, Wilson Wang, Fathy IsmailAutoregressive (AR) model is a common predictor that has been extensively used for time series forecasting. Many training methods can used to update AR model parameters, for instance, least square estimate and maximum likelihood estimate; however, both techniques are sensitive to noisy samples and outliers. To deal with the problems, an evolving AR predictor, EAR, is developed in this study … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 8 Apr 2015 · 6,965 accessesView PDF Cite
