Abstract: Stochastic optimization aims to minimize the loss functions with noisy function and/or gradient measurements only. Depending on the types of the underlying variables, optimization problems ...

Sociologist Talcott Parsons observed that social institutions have two functions: the written “manifest” function and the unwritten “latent” function. In many cases, the latent function is as ...

Fans continue to speculate what GTA 6 Will Cost. Many of us are wondering just how much money we’ll be forking over to enjoy Grand Theft Auto VI. This game is on just about everyone’s mind in the ...

Apple's iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 16 models feature an Action button to which you can assign a custom function. Officially, the Action button only supports one function, but there is a way to switch ...

Many types of economic problems require that we consider two variables at the same time. A typical example is the relation between price of a commodity and the demand or supply of that commodity. The ...

Amid efforts to address energy consumption in modern computing systems, one promising approach takes advantage of random networks of non-linear nanoscale junctions formed by nanoparticles as ...

ABSTRACT: This paper presents a new dimension reduction strategy for medium and large-scale linear programming problems. The proposed method uses a subset of the original constraints and combines two ...

I am getting poor results when running the surface approximation functions on very basic models such as cubes: Here is an example of the result, it's similar running it with the code or the cgal demo ...

Quantum annealing (QA) can be competitive to classical algorithms in optimizing continuous-variable functions when running on appropriate hardware, show researchers from Tokyo Tech. By comparing the ...
