This paper presents a new method for solving a class of infinite horizon nonlinear optimal control problems. In this method, first the original optimal control problem is transfor...
An e cient solution to the wire sizing problem WSP usingthe Elmoredelaymodelisproposed. Two formulations of the problem are put forth: in the rst, the minimum interconnect delay i...
L1 regularization is effective for feature selection, but the resulting optimization is challenging due to the non-differentiability of the 1-norm. In this paper we compare state...
