Convex optimization problems arising in applications, possibly as approximations of intractable problems, are often structured and large scale. When the data are noisy, it is of i...
This paper presents a direct reinforcement learning algorithm, called Finite-Element Reinforcement Learning, in the continuous case, i.e. continuous state-space and time. The eval...
The computation of a rigid body transformation which optimally aligns a set of measurement points with a surface and related registration problems are studied from the viewpoint o...

—The first hitting time (FHT) plays an important role in convergence evaluation for evolutionary algorithms. However, the current criteria of the FHT are mostly under a hypothesi...
Markov random fields are designed to represent structured dependencies among large collections of random variables, and are well-suited to capture the structure of real-world sign...
