Rao-Blackwellised Particle Filtering for Dynamic Bayesian Networks
Particle filters (PFs) are powerful samplingbased inference/learning algorithms for dynamic Bayesian networks (DBNs). They allow us to treat, in a principled way, any type of prob...

Solving the Vehicle Routing Problem with Stochastic Demands using the Cross-Entropy Method
An alternate formulation of the classical vehicle routing problem with stochastic demands (VRPSD) is considered. We propose a new heuristic method to solve the problem. The algori...
