We present an algorithm for meshing surfaces that is a simple adaptation of a greedy “farthest point” technique proposed by Chew. Given a surface S, it progressively adds poin...
Decision-theoretic planning is a popular approach to sequential decision making problems, because it treats uncertainty in sensing and acting in a principled way. In single-agent ...

UOBYQA is a new algorithm for general unconstrained optimization calculations, that takes account of the curvature of the objective function, F say, by forming quadratic models by ...
There is a large literature on the rate of convergence problem for general unconstrained stochastic approximations. Typically, one centers the iterate n about the limit point then...
We rework parts of the classical relational theory when the underlying domain is a structure with some interpreted operations that can be used in queries. We identify parts of the...
