Most local convergence analyses of the sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithm for nonlinear programming make strong assumptions about the solution, namely, that the activ...
This paper contains a new convergence analysis for the Lewis and Torczon generalized pattern search (GPS) class of methods for unconstrained and linearly constrained optimization. ...
—This paper provides a complete characterization of stationary Markov random fields on a finite rectangular (nontoroidal) lattice in the basic case of a second-order neighborho...
