Abstract. In this paper, we present a constraint-partitioning approach for finding local optimal solutions of large-scale mixed-integer nonlinear programming problems (MINLPs). Ba...
In this paper, a simulation-based synthesis tool, AMIGO, for analog cell sizing is presented. AMIGO is based upon genetic optimization techniques adapted to circuit sizing. A fram...
Although evolutionary algorithms (EAs) are widely used in practical optimization, their theoretical analysis is still in its infancy. Up to now results on the (expected) runtime ar...
Parameterized Appearance Models (PAMs) (e.g. eigentracking, active appearance models, morphable models) use Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to model the shape and appearance of...
Discriminative learning is challenging when examples are sets of features, and the sets vary in cardinality and lack any sort of meaningful ordering. Kernel-based classification m...
