We introduce a unified modeling and solution framework for various classes of rich vehicle and inventory routing problems as well as other probability-based routing problems with a time-horizon dimension. Demand is assumed to be stochastic and non-stationa ...
In the context of dam safety, reliable safety flood estimation methods are necessary to guarantee a sufficiently designed spillway capacity. Todayâs state of the art allows to approach this topic under different angles. Statistical extrapolations are com ...
This Guideline proposes a protocol for the validation of forensic evaluation methods at the source level, using the Likelihood Ratio framework as defined within the Bayes' inference model. In the context of the inference of identity of source, the Likeliho ...
We present a probabilistic approach to quantify the hazard posed by volcanic ballistic projectiles (VBP) and their potential impact on the built environment. A model named Great Balls of Fire (GBF) is introduced to describe ballistic trajectories of VBPs a ...
Newcomb's problem is viewed as a dynamic game with an agent and a superior being as players. Depending on whether or not a risk-neutral agent's confidence in the superior being, as measured by a subjective probability assigned to the move order, exceeds a ...
In this paper, we use probability theory to prove in suitable conditions the equivalence of equilibrium time correlation functions of microscopic density fields with the time correlation functions of local macroscopic density fields evolved by hydrodynamic ...
In this paper we study the speed of infection spread and the survival of the contact process in the random geometric graph G = G (n, r(n), f) of n nodes independently distributed in S = -1/2, 1/2 according to a certain density f(.). In the first part ...
Systems and methods for tracking interacting objects may acquire, with a sensor, and two or more images associated with two or more time instances. A processor may generate image data from the two or more images. The processor may apply an extended Probabi ...
Revenue management (RM) can be considered an application of operations research in the transportation industry. For these service companies, it is a difficult task to adjust supply and demand. In order to maximize revenue, RM systems display demand behavio ...
East Coast Fever (ECF) is a major livestock disease caused by Theileria parva Theiler, 1904, an emo-parasite protozoan transmitted by the tick Rhipicephalus appendiculatus Neumann, 1901. This disease provokes high mortality in cattle populations of East an ...
