Motivated by parallel optimization, we experiment EDA-like adaptation-rules in the case of λ large. The rule we use, essentially based on estimation of multivariate normal algorit...
A stochastic graph game is played by two players on a game graph with probabilistic transitions. We consider stochastic graph games with -regular winning conditions specified as Ra...
Optimum implementation of non-conventional wells allows us to increase considerably hydrocarbon recovery. By considering the high drilling cost and the potential improvement in we...
Randomization is an efficient tool for global optimization. We here define a method which keeps : – the order 0 of evolutionary algorithms (no gradient) ; – the stochastic as...
An analytical framework for modeling the performance of a single TCP session in the presence of random packet loss is presented that is based on a semi-Markov model for the window ...
