Primal-dual Interior-Point Methods (IPMs) have shown their ability in solving large classes of optimization problems efficiently. Feasible IPMs require a strictly feasible startin...
gn problem can be abstractly characterized as a constrained function-to-structure mapping. The de sign task takes as input the specifications of the desired functions of a device...
Scientists face an ever-increasing challenge in investigating biological systems with high throughput experimental methods such as mass spectrometry and gene arrays because of the...
