Abstract. The paper presents a new distributed Multilevel Ant Stigmergy Algorithm (MASA) for minimizing the power losses in an electric motor by optimizing the independent geometri...
The problem of solving sparse Systems of Linear Algebraic Equations (SLAE) by parallel Monte Carlo numerical methods is considered. The almost optimal Monte Carlo algorithms are pr...
We introduce a new type of graphical model called a `cumulative distribution network' (CDN), which expresses a joint cumulative distribution as a product of local functions. ...
