Abstract In many statistical problems, maximum likelihood estimation by an EM or MM algorithm suffers from excruciatingly slow convergence. This tendency limits the application of ...
We study the minimum s-t-cut problem in graphs with costs on the edges in the context of evolutionary algorithms. Minimum cut problems belong to the class of basic network optimiz...
Abstract. The sub-optimality approximation problem considers an optimization problem O, its optimal solution σ∗ , and a variable x with domain {d1, . . . , dm} and returns appro...
Due to the well-known dimensionality curse problem, search in a high-dimensional space is considered as a "hard" problem. In this paper, a novel symmetrical encoding-bas...

We consider the problem of generating a map between two triangulated meshes, M and M’, with arbitrary and possibly differing genus. This problem has rarely been tackled in its g...
