Tuning Subdivision Algorithms Using Constrained Energy Optimization
In this paper a method is presented to fair the limit surface of a subdivision algorithm around an extraordinary point. The eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the subdivision matrix d...

Comparison of Monte Carlo and Deterministic Methods for Non-Adaptive Optimization
In this paper we compare the average performance of Monte Carlo methods for global optimization with non-adaptive deterministic alternatives. We analyze the behavior of the algori...

Convergence of Ant Colony Optimization on First-order Deceptive Systems
Deceptive problems have been considered difficult for ant colony optimization (ACO) and it was believed that ACO will fail to converge to global optima of deceptive problems. Thi...

A nonsmooth Newton's method for control-state constrained optimal control problems
We investigate optimal control problems subject to mixed control-state constraints. The necessary conditions are stated in terms of a local minimum principle. By use of the Fischer...

Optimal implementations of UPGMA and other common clustering algorithms
In this work we consider hierarchical clustering algorithms, such as UPGMA, which follow the closest-pair joining scheme. We survey optimal O(n2)-time implementations of such algo...
