Computing unique input-output sequences (UIOs) from finite state machines (FSMs) is important for conformance testing in software engineering, where evolutionary algorithms (EAs)...
Optimizing the ratio of two functions of binary variables is a common task in many image analysis applications. In general, such a ratio is not amenable to graph-cut based optimiz...
DIRECT (DIviding RECTangles) is a deterministic global optimization algorithm for bound-constrained problems. The algorithm, based on a space-partitioning scheme, performs both gl...
Abstract. We present a new derivative-free algorithm, ORBIT, for unconstrained local optimization of computationally expensive functions. A trust-region framework using interpolati...

We present a functional DBPL in the style of FP that facilitates the definition of precise semantics and opens up opportunities for far-reaching optimizations. The language is int...
