The extraction of optimal features, in a classification sense, is still quite challenging in the context of large-scale classification problems (such as visual recognition), inv...
This paper develops a variant of Simulated Annealing (SA) algorithm for solving discrete stochastic optimization problems where the objective function is stochastic and can be eva...
Particle swarm optimization (PSO) has shown to be an efficient, robust and simple optimization algorithm. Most of the PSO studies are empirical, with only a few theoretical analys...
—This paper addresses the problem of optimal rate allocation for video streaming in a multi-path peer-to-peer mesh network. We present a distributed rate allocation algorithm tha...
The problem of finding the binomial population with the highest success probability is considered when the number of binomial populations is large. A new rigorous indifference zo...
