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...
Current logic synthesis techniques are ineffective for arithmetic circuits. They perform poorly for XOR-dominated circuits, and those with a high fan-in dependency between inputs ...
—The performance of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithms depends strongly upon the interaction among the particles. The existing communication topologies for PSO (e.g. st...
— From copyright protection to error concealment, video data hiding has found usage in a great number of applications. Recently proposed applications such as privacy data preserv...
