Real-Coded Adaptive Range Genetic Algorithm Applied to Transonic Wing Optimization
Real-coded Adaptive Range Genetic Algorithms (ARGAs) have been applied to a practical three-dimensional shape optimization for aerodynamic design of an aircraft wing. The real-code...

Comparison of Monte Carlo and Deterministic Methods for Non-Adaptive Optimization
In this paper we compare the average performance of Monte Carlo methods for global optimization with non-adaptive deterministic alternatives. We analyze the behavior of the algori...

On optimality of a polynomial algorithm for random linear multidimensional assignment problem
We demonstrate that the Linear Multidimensional Assignment Problem with iid random costs is polynomially "-approximable almost surely (a. s.) via a simple greedy heuristic, f...

On the complexity of optimization over the standard simplex
We review complexity results for minimizing polynomials over the standard simplex and unit hypercube. In addition, we derive new results on the computational complexity of approxi...
