Flexible Shift Planning in the Service Industry: The Case of Physicians in Hospitals
Flexible Shift Planning in the Service Industry: The Case of Physicians in Hospitals

The book presents new ideas to model and solve the flexible shift planning problem of personnel workers in the service industry. First, a new modeling approach is proposed that requires shifts to be generated implicitly rather than employing a predefined set of shift types like three 8-hour or two 12-hour shifts to cover varying forecast demand....

Multiple Wiener-Itô Integrals: With Applications to Limit Theorems
Multiple Wiener-Itô Integrals: With Applications to Limit Theorems

The goal of this Lecture Note is to prove a new type of limit theorems for normalized sums of strongly dependent random variables that play an important role in probability theory or in statistical physics. Here non-linear functionals of stationary Gaussian fields are considered, and it is shown that the theory of Wiener–Itô...

Inverse Problem Theory and Methods for Model Parameter Estimation
Inverse Problem Theory and Methods for Model Parameter Estimation
‘Tarantola's book is undoubtedly the most important work on probabilistic inverse theory. It presents a complete theory where a physical parameter is represented, not by a number, but by a probability distribution.’ Klaus Mosegaard, Niels Bohr Institute

The use of actual observations to infer the properties of a

Energy Minimization Methods in Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition: 8th International Conference, EMMCVPR 2011
Energy Minimization Methods in Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition: 8th International Conference, EMMCVPR 2011

Over the last few decades, energy minimization methods have become an established paradigm to resolve a variety of challenges in the fields of computer vision and pattern recognition. While traditional approaches to computer vision were often based on a heuristic sequence of processing steps and merely allowed a very limited...

Multi-Objective Swarm Intelligent Systems: Theory & Experiences (Studies in Computational Intelligence)
Multi-Objective Swarm Intelligent Systems: Theory & Experiences (Studies in Computational Intelligence)
Recently, a new class of heuristic techniques, the swarm intelligence has emerged. In this context, more recently, biologists and computer scientists in the field of “artificial life” have been turning to insects for ideas that can be used for heuristics. Many aspects of the collective activities of social insects,...
Heuristic Search: Theory and Applications
Heuristic Search: Theory and Applications

Search has been vital to artificial intelligence from the very beginning as a core technique in problem solving. The authors present a thorough overview of heuristic search with a balance of discussion between theoretical analysis and efficient implementation and application to real-world problems. Current developments in search such as...

Rule Based Expert Systems: The Mycin Experiments of the Stanford Heuristic Programming Project
Rule Based Expert Systems: The Mycin Experiments of the Stanford Heuristic Programming Project
The last seven years have seen the field of artificial intelligence (AI) transformed. This transformation is not simple, nor has it yet run its course. The transformation has been generated by the emergence of expert systems. Whatever exactly these are or turn out to be, they first arose during the 1970s, with a triple claim: to be AI systems that...
