This paper presents the novel idea of multi-placement structures, for a fast and optimized placement instantiation in analog circuit synthesis. These structures need to be generat...
We present a method for designing truss structures, a common and complex category of buildings, using non-linear optimization. Truss structures are ubiquitous in the industrialize...

— This paper presents a genetic algorithm (GA) with a stress-based crossover (SX) operator to obtain a solution without checkerboard patterns for multi-constrained topology optim...
Abstract. This paper proposes a novel curvilinear structure detector, called Optimally Oriented Flux (OOF). OOF finds an optimal axis on which image gradients are projected in orde...
We study the complexity of sequentially-optimal classical planning, and discover new problem classes for whose such optimization is tractable. The results are based on exploiting ...
