Abstract. This paper investigates the use of a steady state genetic algorithm (GA) to perform quadrilateral finite element mesh smoothing. GAS short for genetic algorithm smoother...
This paper analyses the Contrastive Divergence algorithm for learning statistical parameters. We relate the algorithm to the stochastic approximation literature. This enables us t...
Portfolio management in finance is more than a mathematical problem of optimizing performance under risk constraints. A critical factor in practical portfolio problems is severe u...

How do I find the optimal photometric system for a survey? Designing a photometric system to best fulfil a set of scientific goals is a complex task, demanding a compromise betwee...
Abstract. This article is devoted to the construction of a Hermite-type regularization operator transforming functions that are not necessarily C1 into globally C1 finite-element f...
