: The paper presents results on the runtime complexity of two ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithms: Ant System, the oldest ACO variant, and GBAS, the first ACO variant for whic...
Given an ordinary differential equation on a homogeneous manifold, one can construct a "geometric integrator" by determining a compatible ordinary differential equation ...
The hurdles in solving Constrained Optimization Problems (COP) arise from the challenge of searching a huge variable space in order to locate feasible points with acceptable solut...

The general problem of robust optimization is this: one of several possible scenarios will appear tomorrow, but things are more expensive tomorrow than they are today. What should...
We propose a simulation-based method for calculating maximum likelihood estimators in latent variable models. The proposed method integrates a recently developed sampling strategy...
