Oblivious Randomized Direct Search for Real-Parameter Optimization
The focus is on black-box optimization of a function f : RN R given as a black box, i. e. an oracle for f-evaluations. This is commonly called direct search, and in fact, most meth...

An extremal optimization search method for the protein folding problem: the go-model example
The protein folding problem consists of predicting the functional (native) structure of the protein given its linear sequence of amino acids. Despite extensive progress made in un...

Optimal Two-Stage Search for Sparse Targets Using Convex Criteria
We consider the problem of estimating and detecting sparse signals over a large area of an image or other medium. We introduce a novel cost function that captures the tradeoff bet...

Using Adaptive Priority Weighting to Direct Search in Probabilistic Scheduling
Many scheduling problems reside in uncertain and dynamic environments – tasks have a nonzero probability of failure and may need to be rescheduled. In these cases, an optimized ...

Random Search for Hyper-Parameter Optimization
Grid search and manual search are the most widely used strategies for hyper-parameter optimization. This paper shows empirically and theoretically that randomly chosen trials are ...
