We consider the problem of globally minimizing the sum of many rational functions over a given compact semialgebraic set. The number of terms can be large (10 to 100), the degree ...
Abstract. Dynamic optimization using evolutionary algorithms is receiving increasing interests. However, typical test functions for comparing the performance of various dynamic opt...
This paper extends the set of problems for which a global solution can be found using modern optimization methods. In particular, the method is applied to estimation of the essent...
The automation of forest cleaning presupposes principles for choosing those trees that ought to be taken away and those that shall be left standing. In this paper, which is a repor...
