Blind optimization of algorithm parameters for signal denoising by Monte-Carlo SURE
We consider the problem of optimizing the parameters of an arbitrary denoising algorithm by minimizing Stein’s Unbiased Risk Estimate (SURE) which provides a means of assessing ...

Gaussian Adaptation as a unifying framework for continuous black-box optimization and adaptive Monte Carlo sampling
Abstract— We present a unifying framework for continuous optimization and sampling. This framework is based on Gaussian Adaptation (GaA), a search heuristic developed in the late...
