Abstract. Solutions of the optimal control and H-control problems for nonlinear affine systems can be found by solving Hamilton-Jacobi equations. However, these first order nonline...
Abstract. We describe and critique the convergence properties of filterbased evolutionary pattern search algorithms (F-EPSAs). F-EPSAs implicitly use a filter to perform a multi-...
In this paper, we give a finite disjunctive programming procedure to obtain the convex hull of general mixed-integer linear programs (MILP) with bounded integer variables. We prop...
Several variants of the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm have been proposed in recent past to tackle the multi-objective optimization problems based on the concept of Pa...
There is a large literature on the rate of convergence problem for general unconstrained stochastic approximations. Typically, one centers the iterate n about the limit point then...
