Optimal Stochastic Search and Adaptive Momentum
Stochastic optimization algorithms typically use learning rate schedules that behave asymptotically as (t) = 0=t. The ensemble dynamics (Leen and Moody, 1993) for such algorithms ...

Optimal leaf ordering of complete binary trees
Ordering a set of items so as to minimize the sum of distances between consecutive elements is a fundamental optimization problem occurring in many settings. While it is NP-hard i...

Bumblebees: a multiagent combinatorial optimization algorithm inspired by social insect behaviour
This paper introduces a multiagent optimization algorithm inspired by the collective behavior of social insects. In our method, each agent encodes a possible solution of the probl...
