Synthesis of a global asymptotic stabilizing feedback law for a system satisfying two different sector conditions
— Global asymptotic stabilization for a class of nonlinear systems is addressed. The dynamics of these systems are composed of a linear part to which is added some nonlinearities...

Improving global numerical optimization using a search-space reduction algorithm
We have developed an algorithm for reduction of search-space, called Domain Optimization Algorithm (DOA), applied to global optimization. This approach can efficiently eliminate ...

An Iterated Local Search Approach for Minimum Sum-of-Squares Clustering
Abstract. Since minimum sum-of-squares clustering (MSSC) is an NPhard combinatorial optimization problem, applying techniques from global optimization appears to be promising for r...

Global convergence of a modified spectral FR conjugate gradient method
Abstract: The nonlinear conjugate gradient method is widely used in unconstrained optimization. However, the line search is very difficult or expensive sometimes. In this paper, we...

On test sets for nonlinear integer maximization
A finite test set for an integer optimization problem enables us to verify whether a feasible point attains the global optimum. We establish in this paper several general results ...
