Conservation of information (COI) popularized by the no free lunch theorem is a great leveler of search algorithms, showing that on average no search outperforms any other. Yet in ...
Multiple view data, which have multiple representations from different feature spaces or graph spaces, arise in various data mining applications such as information retrieval, bio...
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. ...
— Reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms have long been promising methods for enabling an autonomous robot to improve its behavior on sequential decision-making tasks. The obviou...
We give a necessary and sufficient condition for an algebraic ODE to have a rational type general solution. For an autonomous first order ODE, we give an algorithm to compute a r...
