Computational methods for complex stochastic systems: a review of some alternatives to MCMC
We consider analysis of complex stochastic models based upon partial information. MCMC and reversible jump MCMC are often the methods of choice for such problems, but in some situ...

Adaptive methods for sequential importance sampling with application to state space models
Abstract. In this paper we discuss new adaptive proposal strategies for sequential Monte Carlo algorithms--also known as particle filters--relying on new criteria evaluating the qu...

On the Impact of Mutation-Selection Balance on the Runtime of Evolutionary Algorithms
The interplay between the mutation operator and the selection mechanism plays a fundamental role in the behaviour of evolutionary algorithms (EAs). However, this interplay is stil...

On using error bounds to optimize cost-sensitive multimodal biometric authentication
While using more biometric traits in multimodal biometric fusion can effectively increase the system robustness, often, the cost associated to adding additional systems is not con...

Yield-driven iterative robust circuit optimization algorithm
This paper proposes an equation-based multi-scenario iterative robust optimization methodology for analog/mixed-signal circuits. We show that due to local circuit performance mono...
