— This paper presents Natural Evolution Strategies (NES), a novel algorithm for performing real-valued ‘black box’ function optimization: optimizing an unknown objective func...
In this paper, an adaptive sampling method is proposed for the statistical SRAM cell analysis. The method is composed of two components. One part is the adaptive sampler that manip...
We explore an approach to 3D people tracking with learned motion models and deterministic optimization. The tracking problem is formulated as the minimization of a differentiable ...
Abstract. A major task in evolutionary biology is to determine the ancestral relationships among the known species, a process generally referred as phylogenetic reconstruction. In ...
In this paper, we propose preconditioned Krylov-subspace iterative methods to perform efficient DC and transient simulations for large-scale linear circuits with an emphasis on po...
