Various algorithms can compute approximate feasible points or approximate solutions to equality and bound constrained optimization problems. In exhaustive search algorithms for gl...
Beam-ACO algorithms are hybrid methods that combine the metaheuristic ant colony optimization with beam search. They heavily rely on accurate and computationally inexpensive boundi...
In this paper, we propose a novel non-parametric clustering method based on non-parametric local shrinking. Each data point is transformed in such a way that it moves a specific ...
A simple learning rule is derived, the VAPS algorithm, which can be instantiated to generate a wide range of new reinforcementlearning algorithms. These algorithms solve a number ...
We have recently proposed an EM-style algorithm to optimize log-linear models with hidden variables. In this paper, we use this algorithm to optimize a hidden conditional random ...
