Optional and mandatory assignment strategies for dynamic vehicle routing with time windows by Mustafa Demirbilek

“…In MPA, customer requests can be rejected if future requests are expected to be more advantageous, whereas MPM mandates accepting requests provided vehicle capacity is sufficient. After optimizing the methods through sensitivity analyses, we evaluated their performance against Clarke and Wright's Savings Algorithm (CW) across various real-world-inspired scenarios, including different time window lengths, interarrival times, and region types. …”

Image forgery detection algorithm based on U-shaped detection network by Zhuzhu WANG

“…Aiming at the defects of traditional image tampering detection algorithm relying on single image attribute,low applicability and current high time-complexity detection algorithm based on deep learning,an U-shaped detection network image forgery detection algorithm was proposed.Firstly,the multi-stage feature information in the image by using the continuous convolution layers and the max-pooling layers was extracted by U-shaped detection network,and then the obtained feature information to the resolution of the input image through the upsampling operation was restored.At the same time,in order to ensure higher detection accuracy while extracting high-level semantic information of the image,the output features of each stage in U-shaped detection network would be merged with the corresponding output features through the upsampling layer.Further the hidden feature information between tampered and un-tampered regions in the image upon the characteristics of the general network was explored by U-shaped detection network,which could be realized quickly by using its end-to-end network structure and extracting the attributes of strong correlation information among image contexts that could ensure high-precision detection results.Finally,the conditional random field was used to optimize the output of the U-shaped detection network to obtain a more exact detection results.The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms those traditional forgery detection algorithms based on single image attribute and the current deep learning-based detection algorithm,and has good robustness.…”
