Recent work is beginning to reveal the potential of numerical optimization as an approach to generating interfaces and displays. Optimization-based approaches can often allow a mi...
Abstract—This paper studies a constrained optical signal-tonoise ratio (OSNR) optimization problem in optical networks from the perspective of system performance. A system optimi...
Abstract. We present a new derivative-free algorithm, ORBIT, for unconstrained local optimization of computationally expensive functions. A trust-region framework using interpolati...
