MARS Knot Positioning and Global Optimization
(2019-08-12)
Multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS) is a statistical modeling approach with wide real-world applications. In the MARS model building process, knot positioning is a critical step that potentially affects the ...
A MULTI-AGENT DEMAND RESPONSE PLANNING AND OPERATIONAL OPTIMIZATION FRAMEWORK
(2019-08-29)
This research describes a real-time optimization model for multi-agent demand response (DR) from a Load Serving Entity (LSE) perspective. We formulate two infinite horizon stochastic optimization models; specifically, an ...
Uncovering Underlying Features for State Transition Modeling
(2019-09-06)
Modeling of a dynamic system is the representation of the interconnectivity of system state variables and their evolutionary trajectory over time. In this dissertation, the terminology “state transition modeling” refers ...
ANALYZING COLLABORATION IN FOOD ASSISTANCE NETWORKS USING AGENT-BASED MODELING
(2019-08-05)
To address the issue of food insecurity, many small independent agencies, known as food pantries, collect and distribute donated food to food-insecure clients. However, the supply of donated food varies significantly from ...
MULTIVARIATE TIME SERIES PATTERN RECOGNITION USING MACHINE LEARNING AND DEEP LEARNING METHODS
(2019-12-16)
In this research work, we have implemented machine learning & deep-learning algorithms on real-time multivariate time series datasets in the manufacturing & health care fields. The research work is organized in two ...
Assessing the impact of Principal Component Analysis on accurately predicting melanoma diagnosis applied on different classification models
(2019-11-26)
With huge amounts of data at our disposal in the medical field, mathematical models are built to diagnose diseases. This study focuses on melanoma because it’s the type of skin cancer that accounts for most deaths, up to ...
PLANNING AND OPTIMIZATION OF A STOCHASTIC MULTI-PHASE MULTI- CRITERIA MULTI-ECHELON HUMANITARIAN LOGISTICS NETWORK
(2019-11-12)
Disasters, may that be anthropogenic or natural, cause much havoc to vast area and population. Property and infrastructures get destroyed. People are often in need of urgent relief like dry foods and water to survive. In ...
