Overcoming hierarchical difficulty by hill-climbing the building block structure
The Building Block Hypothesis suggests that Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are well-suited for hierarchical problems, where efficient solving requires proper problem decomposition and a...

Modelling acute renal failure using blood and breath biomarkers in rats
: This paper compares three methods for estimating renal function, tested in rats. Acute Renal Failure (ARF) was induced via a 60-minute bilateral renal artery clamp in 8 Sprague-D...

Estimating divergence functionals and the likelihood ratio by penalized convex risk minimization
We develop and analyze an algorithm for nonparametric estimation of divergence functionals and the density ratio of two probability distributions. Our method is based on a variati...

A feasible semismooth asymptotically Newton method for mixed complementarity problems
Semismooth Newton methods constitute a major research area for solving mixed complementarity problems (MCPs). Early research on semismooth Newton methods is mainly on infeasible me...

The Lifted Newton Method and Its Application in Optimization
Abstract. We present a new “lifting” approach for the solution of nonlinear optimization problems (NLPs) that have objective and constraint functions with intermediate variable...
