Optimal control subsumes harmonic control
Abstract— We consider trajectory planning within the frameworks of optimal control and harmonic control. We present a formal evidence, in the continuous domain and in a standard ...

A practical approach to sample-path simulation optimization
We propose solving continuous parametric simulation optimizations using a deterministic nonlinear optimization algorithm and sample-path simulations. The optimization problem is w...

Linear Scale-Space Theory from Physical Principles
In the past decades linear scale-space theory was derived on the basis of various axiomatics. In this paper we revisit these axioms and show that they merely coincide with the foll...

A Utile Function Optimizer
Abstract— We recast the problem of unconstrained continuous evolutionary optimization as inference in a fixed graphical model. This approach allows us to address several pervasi...
