— Many real-world dynamic optimisation problems have constraints, and in certain cases not only the objective function changes over time, but the constraints also change as well....
Abstract. This paper describes a novel approach to recovering a parametric deformation that optimally registers one image to another. The method proceeds by constructing a global c...
An exact Markov chain model of the B-cell algorithm (BCA) is constructed via a novel possible transit method. The model is used to formulate a proof that the BCA is convergent abso...
— This paper addresses the problem of simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) by a mobile robot. The SLAM problem is defined as a global optimization problem in which the o...
We examine the so-called rigorous support vector machine (RSVM) approach proposed by Vapnik (1998). The formulation of RSVM is derived by explicitly implementing the structural ris...
