Convergent Message-Passing Algorithms for Inference over General Graphs with Convex Free Energies
Inference problems in graphical models can be represented as a constrained optimization of a free energy function. It is known that when the Bethe free energy is used, the fixedpo...

Convergence of Distributed WSN Algorithms: The Wake-Up Scattering Problem
In this paper, we analyze the problem of finding a periodic schedule for the wake-up times of a set of nodes in a Wireless Sensor Network that optimizes the coverage of the region...

Optimisation-on-a-manifold for global registration of multiple 3D point sets
: We propose a novel algorithm to register multiple 3D point sets within a common reference frame simultaneously. Our approach performs an explicit optimisation on the manifold of ...

Comparison of GA and PSO performance in parameter estimation of microbial growth models: A case-study using experimental data
In this work we examined the performance of two evolutionary algorithms, a genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO), in the estimation of the parameters of a mo...
