Directional self-learning of genetic algorithm
In order to overcome the low convergence speed and prematurity of classical genetic algorithm, an improved method named directional self-learning of genetic algorithm (DSLGA) is p...

Optimal utility based multi-user throughput allocation subject to throughput constraints
— We consider the problem of scheduling multiple users sharing a time-varying wireless channel. (As an example, this is a model of scheduling in 3G wireless technologies, such as...

Symmetric approximate linear programming for factored MDPs with application to constrained problems
A weakness of classical Markov decision processes (MDPs) is that they scale very poorly due to the flat state-space representation. Factored MDPs address this representational pro...

Distributed subgradient methods and quantization effects
Abstract— We consider a convex unconstrained optimization problem that arises in a network of agents whose goal is to cooperatively optimize the sum of the individual agent objec...
