Online learning under one sided \(\sigma \) -smooth function
The online optimization model was first introduced in the research of machine learning problems (Zinkevich, Proceedings of ICML, 928–936, 2003). It is a powerful framework that combines the principles of optim...

Discrete facility location games with different preferences
We study the mechanism design for discrete facility location games with different preferences, where the facilities can only be built at a finite set of candidate locations, and a mechanism maps the agent loca...

Green supplier selection and order allocation using linguistic Z-numbers MULTIMOORA method and bi-objective non-linear programming
Supplier selection and order allocation are major tasks to companies in green supply chain management. Most literatures consider these two tasks as independent sub-problems. In this paper, we propose an integr...

The spherical k-means++ algorithm via local search scheme
The spherical k-means problem (SKMP) is an important variant of the k-means clustering problem (KMP). In this paper, we consider the SKMP, which aims to divide the n points in a given data point set ...

Selfish bin packing under Harmonic mean cost sharing mechanism
In this paper, we introduce the selfish bin packing problem under a new version of cost sharing mechanism based on harmonic mean. The items (as agents) are selfish and intelligent to minimize the cost they hav...

Online One-Sided Smooth Function Maximization
In this paper, we consider the problem of online one-sided smooth (OSS for short) function maximization. The concept of OSS was first proposed by Mehrdad et al. [1] to express the properties of multilinear extens...

Two-Facility Location Games with Distance Requirement
We consider the game of locating two homogeneous facilities in the interval [0, 1] with maximum distance requirement. In this game, n agents report their preferred locations, then the designed mechanism outputs t...
