Accurately characterizing the resource usage of an application at various levels in the memory hierarchy has been a long-standing research problem. Existing characterization studi...
In this paper, we study the performances of the NEW Unconstrained Optimization Algorithm (NEWUOA) with different numbers of interpolation points. NEWUOA is a trust region method, ...
For many real-life engineering optimization problems, the cost of one objective function evaluation can take several minutes or hours. In this context, a popular approach to reduce...
Metamodels are functions with calibrated parameters, used actions and simplifications of the simulation model. A metamodel exposes the system’s input-output relationship and ca...
Decomposition of cells in clumps is a difficult segmentation task requiring region splitting techniques. Techniques that do not employ prior shape constraints usually fail to achi...
