Abstract: Traditional artificial fish swarm algorithm (AFSA) can be affected by visual field parameters, and the step size of the artificial fish also constrained the performance. The step size of the ...

Abstract: In this paper, a new design procedure has been proposed for realization of logarithmic function via three phases: 1) differentiation; 2) division; and 3) integration for any arbitrary analog ...

This study develops a new use of data envelopment analysis for estimating a stochastic frontier cost function that is assumed to have two different error components ...
