We develop a variant of the Nelder-Mead (NM) simplex search procedure for stochastic simulation optimization that is designed to avoid many of the weaknesses encumbering such dire...
Many vision problems have been formulated as en- ergy minimization problems and there have been signif- icant advances in energy minimization algorithms. The most widely-used energ...

Some of the most successful algorithms for satisfiability, such as Walksat, are based on random walks. Similarly, local search algorithms for solving constraint optimization proble...
— Energy consumption is a main issue of concern in wireless networks. Energy minimization increases the time that networks’ nodes work properly without recharging or substituti...
Second-order sufficient optimality conditions are established for the optimal control of semilinear elliptic and parabolic equations with pointwise constraints on the control and t...
