We examine the theoretical and numerical global convergence properties of a certain "gradient free" stochastic approximation algorithm called the "simultaneous pertu...
We consider the optimal computing budget allocation (OCBA) problem where the simulated designs are correlated. The exact optimal allocation is presented for two designs, and an ap...

Training a Support Vector Machine (SVM) requires the solution of a very large quadratic programming (QP) problem. This paper proposes an algorithm for training SVMs: Sequential Mi...
To support 3D architectural modeling, geometric constraints are introduced. Explicit and implicit geometric relations between building elements can be expressed by the designer an...

-- The considered converter-fed permanent magnet motor could alternatively be operated in two basically different states - the vector control mode or alternatively the brushless dc...
