Stochastic Approximation with Simulated Annealing as an Approach to Global Discrete-Event Simulation Optimization
This paper explores an approach to global, stochastic, simulation optimization which combines stochastic approximation (SA) with simulated annealing (SAN). SA directs a search of ...

A decomposition procedure based on approximate Newton directions
The efficient solution of large-scale linear and nonlinear optimization problems may require exploiting any special structure in them in an efficient manner. We describe and analy...

Discretized Approximations for POMDP with Average Cost
In this paper, we propose a new lower approximation scheme for POMDP with discounted and average cost criterion. The approximating functions are determined by their values at a fi...

Asynchronous algorithms for approximate distributed constraint optimization with quality bounds
Distributed Constraint Optimization (DCOP) is a popular framework for cooperative multi-agent decision making. DCOP is NPhard, so an important line of work focuses on developing f...

A computational approximation to the AIXI model
Universal induction solves in principle the problem of choosing a prior to achieve optimal inductive inference. The AIXI theory, which combines control theory and universal induct...
