DIRECT (DIviding RECTangles) is a deterministic global optimization algorithm for bound-constrained problems. The algorithm, based on a space-partitioning scheme, performs both gl...
We present a randomized algorithm to nd a minimum spanning forest (MSF) in an undirected graph. With high probability, the algorithm runs in logarithmic time and linear work on an...
We analyze the performance of evolutionary algorithms on various matroid optimization problems that encompass a vast number of efficiently solvable as well as NP-hard combinatoria...
This paper presents a comprehensive comparison between the performance of state-of-the-art genetic algorithms NSGA-II, SPEA2 and IBEA and their differential evolution based variant...
A new stochastic optimization algorithm referred to by the authors as the `Mean-Variance Optimization' (MVO) algorithm is presented in this paper. MVO falls into the category ...
