Aiming for a theoretically tractable CSA variant by means of empirical investigations
Evolution Strategies (ES) for black-box optimization of a function f : Rn → R are investigated. Namely, we consider the cumulative step-size adaptation (CSA) for the variance of...

Visibility Constraints on Features of 3D Objects
To recognize three-dimensional objects it is important to model how their appearances can change due to changes in viewpoint. A key aspect of this involves understanding which o...

Reachability Problems in Quaternion Matrix and Rotation Semigroups
Abstract. We examine computational problems on quaternion matrix and rotation semigroups. It is shown that in the ultimate case of quaternion matrices, in which multiplication is s...

Approximation algorithms for homogeneous polynomial optimization with quadratic constraints
In this paper, we consider approximation algorithms for optimizing a generic multi-variate homogeneous polynomial function, subject to homogeneous quadratic constraints. Such opti...

Optimal pants decompositions and shortest homotopic cycles on an orientable surface
We consider the problem of finding a shortest cycle (freely) homotopic to a given simple cycle on a compact, orientable surface. For this purpose, we use a pants decomposition of...
