Metropolis Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm with Mutation Operator for Global Optimization Problems
When a local optimal solution is reached with classical Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), all particles in the swarm gather around it, and escaping from this local optima becomes...

Variable mesh optimization for continuous optimization problems
Abstract Population-based meta-heuristics are algorithms that can obtain very good results for complex continuous optimization problems in a reduced amount of time. These search al...

Optimality of affine policies in multi-stage robust optimization
In this paper, we show the optimality of a certain class of disturbance-affine control policies in the context of one-dimensional, constrained, multi-stage robust optimization. Ou...

Sensitivity shaping with degree constraint by nonlinear least-squares optimization
This paper presents a new approach to shaping of the frequency response of the sensitivity function. In this approach, a desired frequency response is assumed to be specified at a...

Robust Optimal Switching Control for Nonlinear Systems
Abstract. We formulate a robust optimal control problem for a general nonlinear system with finitely many admissible control settings and with costs assigned to switching of contro...
