General variable neighborhood search for the continuous optimization
We suggest a new heuristic for solving unconstrained continuous optimization problems. It is based on a generalized version of the variable neighborhood search metaheuristic. Diff...

Polyhedral conditions for the nonexistence of the MLE for hierarchical log-linear models
We provide a polyhedral description of the conditions for the existence of the maximum likelihood estimate (MLE) for a hierarchical log-linear model. The MLE exists if and only if...

Identification and Elimination of Interior Points for the Minimum Enclosing Ball Problem
Given A := {a1, . . . , am} Rn, we consider the problem of reducing the input set for the computation of the minimum enclosing ball of A. In this note, given an approximate soluti...
