Modification of Beale's method for quadratic programming problems

Creator:

Slagle, Rodney L.

Abstract:

This thesis deals with a modification to an existing mathematical ppogramming algorithm called Beale's method. This method is designed to solve only quadratic or linear programming problems. The modification proposed aims to solve some of the problems this method encounters and to shorten the time required for solution by examining...

Masters Thesis
Network models with generalized upper bound side constraints

Creator:

Bolouri, Maryam

Abstract:

The objective of this thesis is to develop and computationally test a new algorithm for the class of network models with generalized upper bound (GUB) side constraints. Various algorithms have been developed to solve the network with arbitrary side constraints problem; however, no algorithm that exploits the special structure of...

Optimizing spatial and temporal aspects of nature reserve design under economic and ecological objectives

Creator:

Nalle, Darek J.

Abstract:

Alteration of natural areas in attempts to support increasing human populations has been a crucial yet less publicized contributor to the fall of many of the world's greatest civilizations, since healthy ecosystems can help maintain stable societies and economies. Given this unhappy fact and the ancient relationship between people and...

Statistical enhancement of support vector machines

Creator:

Taylor, Aimee E.

Abstract:

Support Vector Machines (SVM) and Random Forests (RF) have consistently outperformed other machine learning algorithms on a variety of problems. SVM can be used for classification and regression on many types of data (e.g. nonlinear, high dimensional), but cannot handle missing or mixed data. This research implements a permutation-based variable...

Spatially explicit inter-temporal forest management decision under the risk of fire

Creator:

Konoshima, Masashi

Abstract:

This paper presents a framework for analyzing efficient spatial allocation of forest management efforts - fuel treatment and harvest - under the risk of fire. The framework integrates a fire behavior model and a spatially-explicit stochastic dynamic optimization model. I investigate the effects of spatial interaction across plots during forest...
