— This paper presents Natural Evolution Strategies (NES), a novel algorithm for performing real-valued ‘black box’ function optimization: optimizing an unknown objective func...
Abstract A divide-and-conquer algorithm for computing the parametric yield of large analog circuits is presented. The algorithm targets applications whose performance spreads could...
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...

: A Bayesian distributed online change detection algorithm is proposed for monitoring a dynamical system by a wireless sensor network. The proposed solution relies on modelling the...
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...
