Abstract. We present a new technique for analyzing the rate of convergence of local dynamics in bargaining networks. The technique reduces balancing in a bargaining network to opti...

In this note we show how the implicit filtering algorithm can be coupled with the BFGS quasi-Newton update to obtain a superlinearly convergent iteration if the noise in the object...

We discuss a theory for a realistic, applicable scaled genetic algorithm (GA) which converges asymptoticly to global optima in a coevolutionary setting involving two species. It is...

Abstract. In this paper we unify divergence minimization and statistical inference by means of convex duality. In the process of doing so, we prove that the dual of approximate max...
