We present a new Monte Carlo method for solving the light transport problem, inspired by the Metropolis sampling method in computational physics. To render an image, we generate a...
rees can be used for representing abstract data types such as dictionaries and ordered lists. They work well when the elements are inserted in a random order. Some sequences of ope...
Derandomization by means of mirrored samples has been recently introduced to enhance the performances of (1, λ) and (1 + 2) Evolution-Strategies (ESs) with the aim of designing f...
We consider the problem of finding highly correlated pairs in a large data set. That is, given a threshold not too small, we wish to report all the pairs of items (or binary attri...
Abstract. Real-world optimization problems are often subject to uncertainties, which can arise regarding stochastic model parameters, objective functions and decision variables. Th...
