Bayesian Sequential Inference for Stochastic Kinetic Biochemical Network Models
As postgenomic biology becomes more predictive, the ability to infer rate parameters of genetic and biochemical networks will become increasingly important. In this paper, we expl...

The impact of population size on code growth in GP: analysis and empirical validation
The crossover bias theory for bloat [18] is a recent result which predicts that bloat is caused by the sampling of short, unfit programs. This theory is clear and simple, but it ...

Effective Bayesian Inference for Stochastic Programs
In this paper, we propose a stochastic version of a general purpose functional programming language as a method of modeling stochastic processes. The language contains random choi...

Assessing solution quality in stochastic programs
Determining if a solution is optimal or near optimal is fundamental in optimization theory, algorithms, and computation. For instance, Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions provide necessa...

An efficient algorithm for large scale stochastic nonlinear programming problems
The class of stochastic nonlinear programming (SNLP) problems is important in optimization due to the presence of nonlinearity and uncertainty in many applications, including thos...
