We consider derivative free methods based on sampling approaches for nonlinear optimization problems where derivatives of the objective function are not available and cannot be dir...
Graph clustering (also called graph partitioning) -- clustering the nodes of a graph -- is an important problem in diverse data mining applications. Traditional approaches involve...
