Assessing solution quality in stochastic programs
Determining if a solution is optimal or near optimal is fundamental in optimization theory, algorithms, and computation. For instance, Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions provide necessa...

Particle methods for Bayesian modeling and enhancement of speech signals
This paper applies time-varying autoregressive (TVAR) models with stochastically evolving parameters to the problem of speech modeling and enhancement. The stochastic evolution mod...

A new Particle Filtering algorithm with structurally optimal importance function
Bayesian estimation in nonlinear stochastic dynamical systems has been addressed for a long time. Among other solutions, Particle Filtering (PF) algorithms propagate in time a Mon...

Solving the Vehicle Routing Problem with Stochastic Demands using the Cross-Entropy Method
An alternate formulation of the classical vehicle routing problem with stochastic demands (VRPSD) is considered. We propose a new heuristic method to solve the problem. The algori...
