Towards a decentralized architecture for optimization
We introduce a generic framework for the distributed execution of combinatorial optimization tasks. Instead of relying on custom hardware (like dedicated parallel machines or clus...

Nonlinear Filtering of Convex Sets of Probability Distributions
A solution is provided to the problem of computing a convex set of conditional probability distributions that characterize the state of a nonlinear dynamic system as it evolves in...

Stopping Criterion for a Simulation-Based Optimization Method
We consider a new simulation-based optimization method called the Nested Partitions (NP) method. This method generates a Markov chain and solving the optimization problem is equiv...

A Flexible Addressing System for Approximate Geocoding
Abstract. One of the most important features in an urban geographic information system is the ability to locate addresses, in any form employed by the population, in a quick and ef...
