Abstract: For increasingly complex real-world optimization problems, a large number of researches have shown that differential evolution (DE) is an effective problem-solving algorithm. Despite its ...

Plant viruses are a significant threat to the agri-food sector worldwide as 50% of the emerging epidemics are of viral etiology with annual losses exceeding 30 billion USD (Nicaise, 2014).

U.S. population growth slowed to 0.5% between July 2024 and July 2025, the slowest rate since the early pandemic. North Carolina is the ninth most populous state, with a population of nearly 11.2 ...

As more people move into South Carolina, local governments have to make sure the roads, sewers and schools can serve the growing population. One way to make sure jurisdictions have the necessary ...

Abstract: This paper presents a novel neural network-based optimization framework, NNDE, to solve the traveling salesman problem (TSP). The core idea is to use a radial basis function network (RBFN) ...
