Metasearch information fusion using linear programming

Gholam R. Amin, Ali Emrouznejad, Hamid Sadeghi (2012)

RAIRO - Operations Research

Similarity:

For a specific query merging the returned results from multiple search engines, in the form of a metasearch aggregation, can provide significant improvement in the quality of relevant documents. This paper suggests a minimax linear programming (LP) formulation for fusion of multiple search engines results. The paper proposes a weighting method to include the importance weights of the underlying search engines. This is a two-phase approach...

Interactive compromise hypersphere method and its applications

Sebastian Sitarz (2012)

RAIRO - Operations Research - Recherche Opérationnelle

Similarity:

The paper focuses on multi-criteria problems. It presents the interactive compromise hypersphere method with sensitivity analysis as a decision tool in multi-objective programming problems. The method is based on finding a hypersphere (in the criteria space) which is closest to the set of chosen nondominated solutions. The proposed modifications of the compromise hypersphere method are based on using various metrics and analyzing their influence on the original method. Applications of...

Airspace sectorization with constraints

Huy Trandac, Philippe Baptiste, Vu Duong (2010)

RAIRO - Operations Research

Similarity:

We consider the Airspace Sectorization Problem (ASP) in which airspace has to be partitioned into a given number of sectors, each of which being assigned to a team of air traffic controllers. The objective is to minimize the coordination workload between adjacent sectors while balancing the total workload of controllers. Many specific constraints, including both geometrical and aircraft related constraints are taken into account. The problem is solved in a constraint programming framework....

Multiobjective De Novo Linear Programming

Petr Fiala (2011)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

Similarity:

Mathematical programming under multiple objectives has emerged as a powerful tool to assist in the process of searching for decisions which best satisfy a multitude of conflicting objectives. In multiobjective linear programming problems it is usually impossible to optimize all objectives in a given system. Trade-offs are properties of inadequately designed system a thus can be eliminated through designing better one. Multiobjective De Novo linear programming is problem for designing...
