We present the Optimizing Control Variate (OCV) estimator, a new estimator for Monte Carlo rendering. Based upon a deterministic sampling framework, OCV allows multiple importance...

In this paper, phase combinations among martensitic variants in shape memory alloys patches and bars are simulated by a hybrid optimization methodology. The mathematical model is ...
We apply the method known as simulated annealing to the following problem in convex optimization: minimize a linear function over an arbitrary convex set, where the convex set is ...
We present an algorithm for large-scale equality constrained optimization. The method is based on a characterization of inexact sequential quadratic programming (SQP) steps that ca...
In order to meet the overwhelming demands of content retrieval for mobile end users, a novel architecture for the next-generation Internet called Cache-and-Forward (CNF) has been p...
