Convergence and rate of convergence of a simple ant model
We present a simple ant model that solves a discrete foraging problem. We describe simulations and provide a complete convergence analysis: we show that the ant population compute...

Convergence and convergence rate of stochastic gradient search in the case of multiple and non-isolated extrema
The asymptotic behavior of stochastic gradient algorithms is studied. Relying on some results of differential geometry (Lojasiewicz gradient inequality), the almost sure pointconve...

Asymptotical Convergence Rates of Simple Evolutionary Algorithms under Factorizing Mutation Distributions
Abstract. The standard choice for mutating an individual of an evolutionary algorithm with continuous variables is the normal distribution. It is shown that there is a broad class ...

Convergence to Equilibrium in Local Interaction Games
— We study a simple game theoretic model for the spread of an innovation in a network. The diffusion of the innovation is modeled as the dynamics of a coordination game in which ...
