A Revised Simplex Search Procedure for Stochastic Simulation Response Surface Optimization
We develop a variant of the Nelder-Mead (NM) simplex search procedure for stochastic simulation optimization that is designed to avoid many of the weaknesses encumbering such dire...

A non-linear dimensionality-reduction technique for fast similarity search in large databases
To enable efficient similarity search in large databases, many indexing techniques use a linear transformation scheme to reduce dimensions and allow fast approximation. In this re...
