  • 지역 탐색은 다양한 조합 최적화 문제들을 해결하기 위해 활용되어 왔다. 지역 탐색에 있어서 가장 중요한 요소 중 하나가 이웃해를 생성하는 방법이다. 본 논문에서는 순열 기반 조합 최적화를 위한 지역 탐색의 이웃해 생성 전략들을 제안하고, 순회 외판원 문제를 대상으로 각 전략들의 성능을 비교한다. 본 논문에서는 총 10가지 이웃해 생성 전략을 제안한다. 기본적으로 기존에 많이 사용했던 Swap 등 4가지 전략 이외에 Rotation 등 4가지 기법을 새롭게 제안한다. 이외에 기본 이웃해 생성 전략들을 결합하여 만든 Combined1과 Combined2가 있다. 실험은 기본적인 지역 탐색을 적용하되 이웃해 생성 전략만 변경하여 수행하였다. 실험 결과, 이웃해 생성 전략에 따라 성능 차이가 큰 것을 확인하였으며 아울러 Combined2의 성능이 가장 좋음을 확인하였다. 뿐만 아니라 Combined2는 기존의 지역 탐색 기법들보다 더 좋은 성능을 발휘함을 확인하였다.

  • This paper proposes an imputation method using a bidirectional k-nearest components search based local linear regression method. The bidirectional k-nearest-components search method selects components in the dynamic range from the missing points. Unlike the existing methods, which use a fixed-size window, the proposed method can flexibly select adjacent components in an imputation problem. The weight values assigned to the components around the missing points are calculated using local linear regression. The local linear regression method is free from the rank problem in a matrix of dependent variables. In addition, it can calculate the weight values that reflect the data flow in a specific environment, such as a blackout. The original missing values were estimated from a linear combination of the components and their weights. Finally, the estimated value imputes the missing values. In the experimental results, the proposed method outperformed the existing methods when the error between the original data and imputation data was measured using MAE and RMSE.

  • Traffic signal setting policies and traffic assignment procedures are mutually dependent. The combined signal control and traffic assignment problem deals with this interaction. With the total travel time minimization objective, gradient based local search methods are implemented. Deterministic user equilibrium is the selected user route choice rule, Webster's delay curve is the link performance function, and green time per cycle ratios are decision variables. Three implemented solution codes resulting in six variations include intersections operating under multiphase operation with overlapping traffic movements. For reference, the iterative approach is also coded and all codes are tested in four example networks at five demand levels. The results show the numerical gradient estimation procedure performs best although the simplified local searches show reducing the large network computational burden. Demand level as well as network size affects the relative performance of the local and iterative approaches. As demand level becomes higher, (1) in the small network, the local search tends to outperform the iterative search and (2) in the large network, vice versa.

  • 정수계획법 기반 지역 탐색은 단순 언덕오르기 탐색을 기반으로 하는 지역 탐색의 일종으로서 기존의 지역 탐색과는 달리 이웃해 생성 시 정수계획법을 활용한다. 기존 연구 [1]에 의하면 정수계획법 기반 지역 탐색은 경영과학 및 인공지능 분야에서 많은 관심을 받아 온 다차원 배낭 문제를 해결하는 데 매우 효과적인 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 해당 연구에서는 OR-Library에 있는 다차원 배낭 문제들 중 규모가 가장 큰 문제들만을 대상으로 하여 정수계획법 기반 지역 탐색의 우수성을 검증하였다는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 그 외의 문제들을 대상으로 정수계획법 기반 지역 탐색을 적용함으로써 보다 객관적으로 정수계획법 기반 지역 탐색의 우수성을 검증한다. 아울러 본 논문에서는 기존의 정수계획법 기반 지역 탐색이 단순 언덕오르기 탐색과 정수계획법을 결합한 것과는 달리 언덕오르기 탐색, 타부 탐색, 시뮬레이티드 어닐링과 같은 다른 지역 탐색 기법과 정수계획법을 결합하는 방안을 제시한다. 실험 결과, 정수계획법 기반 지역 탐색은 중소 규모의 다차원 배낭 문제들에 있어서도 기존의 가장 좋은 휴리스틱 탐색 기법에 비해 유사하거나 더 우수한 성능을 발휘함을 확인하였다.

  • Background: Consumers and patients in the last two decades have increasingly turned to various internet search engines including Google for information. Google Trends records searches done using the Google search engine. Google Trends is free and provides data on search terms and related queries. One recent study found a large public interest in "dental anesthesia". In this paper, we further explore this interest in "dental anesthesia" and assess if any patterns emerge. Methods: In this study, Google Trends and the search term "dental pain" was used to record the consumer's interest over a five-year period. Additionally, using the search term "Dental anesthesia," a top ten related query list was generated. Queries are grouped into two sections, a "top" category and a "rising" category. We then added additional search term such as: wisdom tooth anesthesia, wisdom tooth general anesthesia, dental anesthetics, local anesthetic, dental numbing, anesthesia dentist, and dental pain. From the related queries generated from each search term, repeated themes were grouped together and ranked according to the total sum of their relative search frequency (RSF) values. Results: Over the five-year time period, Google Trends data show that there was a 1.5% increase in the search term "dental pain". Results of the related queries for dental anesthesia show that there seems to be a large public interest in how long local anesthetics last (Total RSF = 231) - even more so than potential side effects or toxicities (Total RSF = 83). Conclusion: Based on these results it is recommended that clinicians clearly advice their patients on how long local anesthetics last to better manage patient expectations.

  • A local map-based exploration algorithm for mobile robots is presented. Segmented frontiers and their relative transformations constitute a tree structure. By the proposed efficient frontier segmentation and a local map management method, a robot can reduce the unknown area and update the local grid map which is assigned to each frontier node. Although this local map-based exploration method uses only local maps and their adjacent node information, mapping completion and efficiency can be greatly improved by merging and updating the frontier nodes. Also, we suggest appropriate graph search exploration methods for corridor and hall environments. The simulation demonstrates that the entire environment can be represented by well-distributed frontier nodes.

  • This paper proposes a new method for accelerating the search speed of genetic algorithms by taking derivative evaluation and conditional random selection into account in their evolution process. Derivative evaluation makes genetic algorithms focus on the individuals whose fitness is rapidly increased. This accelerates the search speed of genetic algorithms by enhancing exploitation like steepest descent methods but also increases the possibility of a premature convergence that means most individuals after a few generations approach to local optima. On the other hand, derivative evaluation under a premature convergence helps genetic algorithms escape the local optima by enhancing exploration. If GAs fall into a premature convergence, random selection is used in order to help escaping local optimum, but its effects are not large. We experimented our method with one combinatorial problem and five complex function optimization problems. Experimental results showed that our method was superior to the simple genetic algorithm especially when the search space is large.

  • This paper proposes a combinatorial method to compute the global and local solutions of optimization problem. The present hybrid algorithm is the synthesis of a genetic algorithm and a local concentrate search algorithm (simplex method). The hybrid algorithm is not only faster than the standard genetic algorithm, but also gives a more accurate solution. In addition, this algorithm can find both the global and local optimum solutions. An optimization result is presented to demonstrate that the proposed approach successfully focuses on the advantages of global and local searches. Three numerical examples are also presented in this paper to compare with conventional methods.

  • 선형 제약 만족 최적화 문제는 선형식으로 표현 가능한 목적함수 및 복잡한 제약조건을 포함하는 조합 최적화 문제를 의미한다. 정수계획법은 이와 같은 문제를 해결하는 데 매우 효과적인 기법으로 알려져 있지만 문제의 규모가 커질 경우 준최적해를 도출하기까지 매우 많은 시간과 메모리를 요구한다. 본 논문에서는 지역 탐색과 정수계획법을 결합하여 탐색 성능을 향상할 수 있는 방안을 제시한다. 기본적으로 대상 문제의 해결을 위해 지역 탐색의 가장 단순한 형태인 단순 언덕오르기 탐색을 사용하되 이웃해 생성 시 정수계획법을 적용한다. 또한 부가적으로 초기해 생성을 위해 제약 프로그래밍을 활용한다. N-Queens 최대화 문제를 대상으로 한 실험 결과, 본 논문에서 제시한 기법을 통해 다른 탐색 기법들보다 훨씬 더 좋은 해를 도출할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • 5G network optimization problem is a challenging optimization problem in the practical engineering applications. In this paper, to tackle this issue, Pareto fronts-driven Multi-Objective Cuckoo Search (PMOCS) is proposed based on Cuckoo Search. Firstly, the original global search manner is upgraded to a new form, which is aimed to strengthening the convergence. Then, the original local search manner is modified to highlight the diversity. To test the overall performance of PMOCS, PMOCS is test on three test suits against several classical comparison methods. Experimental results demonstrate that PMOCS exhibits outstanding performance. Further experiments on the 5G network optimization problem indicates that PMOCS is promising compared with other methods.
