Abstract: The influence maximization (IM) problem is currently a rising research hotspot in the complex network field. Nodes with the best information dissemination effect are expected to be selected.

Mathematicians just made a big leap forward on one of the field’s all-time favorite problems. Curves—squiggly lines through space, such as a comet’s trajectory or a stock market trend—are some of math ...

Abstract: This letter presents an enhanced Trust Region Method (TRM) for Sequential Linear Programming (SLP) designed to improve the initial feasible solution to a constrained nonlinear programming ...
