We present a new optimization technique that yields the first FPTAS for several geometric problems. These problems reduce to optimizing a sum of non-negative, constant description...
— In this paper, we propose a new algorithm, named JACC-G, for large scale optimization problems. The motivation is to improve our previous work on grouping and adaptive weightin...

We consider stochastic impulse control problems where the process is driven by one-dimensional diffusions. Impulse control problems are widely applied to financial engineering and...
We introduce a parallelized version of tree-decomposition based dynamic programming for solving difficult weighted CSP instances on many cores. A tree decomposition organizes cost ...
In this paper we describe how the Stepwise Adaptation of Weights (saw) technique can be applied in genetic programming. The saw-ing mechanism has been originally developed for and ...
