The field of transfer learning aims to speed up learning across multiple related tasks by transferring knowledge between source and target tasks. Past work has shown that when th...
For many real-life engineering optimization problems, the cost of one objective function evaluation can take several minutes or hours. In this context, a popular approach to reduce...
— This paper presents Natural Evolution Strategies (NES), a novel algorithm for performing real-valued ‘black box’ function optimization: optimizing an unknown objective func...
— This paper investigates the problem of the formation of an uplink tree structure among the IEEE 802.16j network’s relay stations (RSs) and their serving base station (MR-BS)....
Classical sampling records the signal level at pre-determined time instances, usually uniformly spaced. An alternative implicit sampling model is to record the timing of pre-deter...
