We consider the classical finite-state discounted Markovian decision problem, and we introduce a new policy iteration-like algorithm for finding the optimal state costs or Q-facto...
Earlier research has shown that the problem of optimal weighted median filtering with structural constraints can be formulated as a nonconvex nonlinear programming problem in gene...
In this paper we extend the domain of applicability of the E-method [7, 8], as a hardware-oriented method for evaluating elementary functions using polynomial and rational functio...

The distribution of fitness values across a set of states sharply influences the dynamics of evolutionary processes and heuristic search in combinatorial optimization. In this p...
In this paper we present an equilibrium value based framework for solving SDPs via the multiplicative weight update method which is different from the one in Kale's thesis [K...
