Global Optimization of Probabilistically Constrained Linear Programs
We consider probabilistic constrained linear programs with general distributions for the uncertain parameters. These problems generally involve non-convex feasible sets. We develo...

Calculus of Variations in Discrete Space for Constrained Nonlinear Dynamic Optimization
In this paper, we propose new dominance relations that can speed up significantly the solution process of nonlinear constrained dynamic optimization problems in discrete time and...

Finding nearest neighbors in growth-restricted metrics
Most research on nearest neighbor algorithms in the literature has been focused on the Euclidean case. In many practical search problems however, the underlying metric is non-Eucl...

Mining distance-based outliers from large databases in any metric space
Let R be a set of objects. An object o R is an outlier, if there exist less than k objects in R whose distances to o are at most r. The values of k, r, and the distance metric ar...

Conflict-Directed A* Search for Soft Constraints
As many real-world problems involve user preferences, costs, or probabilities, constraint satisfaction has been extended to optimization by generalizing hard constraints to soft co...
