Geometric Nelder-Mead Algorithm for the permutation representation
The Nelder-Mead Algorithm (NMA) is an almost half-century old method for numerical optimization, and it is a close relative of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Differential Ev...

A Revised Simplex Search Procedure for Stochastic Simulation Response Surface Optimization
We develop a variant of the Nelder-Mead (NM) simplex search procedure for stochastic simulation optimization that is designed to avoid many of the weaknesses encumbering such dire...

Simultaneous Segmentation of Multiple Closed Surfaces Using Optimal Graph Searching
This paper presents a general graph-theoretic technique for simultaneously segmenting multiple closed surfaces in volumetric images, which employs a novel graph-construction scheme...

Freeform surfaces from single curved panels
Motivated by applications in architecture and manufacturing, we discuss the problem of covering a freeform surface by single curved panels. This leads to the new concept of semi-d...
