Many systems design, configuration, runtime and management decisions must be made from a large set of possible alternatives. Ad hoc heuristics have traditionally been used to make...

Abstract. We address the problem of continuous stochastic optimal control in the presence of hard obstacles. Due to the non-smooth character of the obstacles, the traditional appro...
We propose an alternative algorithm for solving continuous review inventory model problems for deteriorating items over a finite horizon. Our interest focuses on the case of time...

We consider a class of learning problems regularized by a structured sparsity-inducing norm defined as the sum of 2- or ∞-norms over groups of variables. Whereas much effort ha...
Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) technique has proved its ability to deal with very complicated optimization and search problems. Several variants of the original algorithm have b...
