A few good agents: multi-agent social learning
In this paper, we investigate multi-agent learning (MAL) in a multi-agent resource selection problem (MARS) in which a large group of agents are competing for common resources. Si...

The mathematics of continuous-variable simulation optimization
Continuous-variable simulation optimization problems are those optimization problems where the objective function is computed through stochastic simulation and the decision variab...

Exploring Ambiguities for Monocular Non-Rigid Shape Estimation
Recovering the 3D shape of deformable surfaces from single images is difficult because many different shapes have very similar projections. This is commonly addressed by restricti...

A Sober Look at Clustering Stability
Stability is a common tool to verify the validity of sample based algorithms. In clustering it is widely used to tune the parameters of the algorithm, such as the number k of clust...

Learning to maximize signal-to-noise ratio for reverberant speech segregation
Monaural speech segregation in reverberant environments is a very difficult problem. We develop a supervised learning approach by proposing an objective function that directly rel...

A dynamic artificial immune algorithm applied to challenging benchmarking problems
Abstract-- In many real-world scenarios, in contrast to standard benchmark optimization problems, we may face some uncertainties regarding the objective function. One source of the...

Algorithms for Mining Association Rules for Binary Segmentations of Huge Categorical Databases
We consider the problem of finding association rules that make nearly optimal binary segmentations of huge categorical databases. The optimality of segmentation is defined by an o...

Visualization for multiparameter aircraft designs
We describe an aircraft design problem in high dimensional space, with D typically being 10 to 30. In some respects this is a classic optimization problem, where the goal is to fi...

Nonparametric Linear Discriminant Analysis by Recursive Optimization with Random Initialization
A method for the linear discrimination of two classes has been proposed by us in 3 . It searches for the discriminant direction which maximizes the distance between the projected c...
