Ant Colony Optimization and Stochastic Gradient Descent
In this paper, we study the relationship between the two techniques known as ant colony optimization (aco) and stochastic gradient descent. More precisely, we show that some empir...

Continuous GRASP with a local active-set method for bound-constrained global optimization
Abstract. Global optimization seeks a minimum or maximum of a multimodal function over a discrete or continuous domain. In this paper, we propose a hybrid heuristic – based on th...

Smoothing by mollifiers. Part I: semi-infinite optimization
We show that a compact feasible set of a standard semi-infinite optimization problem can be approximated arbitrarily well by a level set of a single smooth function with certain r...
