Gradient estimation in global optimization algorithms
Abstract— The role of gradient estimation in global optimization is investigated. The concept of a regional gradient is introduced as a tool for analyzing and comparing different...

Global Optimization for Alignment of Generalized Shapes
In this paper, we introduce a novel algorithm to solve global shape registration problems. We use gray-scale “images” to represent source shapes, and propose a novel twocompo...

Nonnegative 3-way tensor factorization via conjugate gradient with globally optimal stepsize
This paper deals with the minimal polyadic decomposition (also known as canonical decomposition or Parafac) of a 3way array, assuming each entry is positive. In this case, the low...

Learning when to stop thinking and do something!
An anytime algorithm is capable of returning a response to the given task at essentially any time; typically the quality of the response improves as the time increases. Here, we c...
