In this paper a novel, Gibbs sampler-based algorithm is proposed for coordination of autonomous swarms. The swarm is modeled as a Markov random field (MRF) on a graph with a time-...
The cross-entropy method (CE) developed by R. Rubinstein is an elegant practical principle for simulating rare events. The method approximates the probability of the rare event by...
Abstract: A novel self-organizing algorithm for conformational sampling is introduced, in which precomputed conformations of rigid fragments are used as templates to enforce the de...
: The guarantee of feasibility given feasibility at initial time is an issue that has been overlooked by many of the recent papers on stochastic model predictive control. Effective...

We introduce a novel global optimization method called Continuous GRASP (C-GRASP) which extends Feo and Resende’s greedy randomized adaptive search procedure (GRASP) from the dom...
