Approximation accuracy, gradient methods, and error bound for structured convex optimization
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...

New evaluation criteria for the convergence of continuous evolutionary algorithms
—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...
