Combining Cross Entropy and MADS methods for inequality constrained global optimization
Charles Audet, Romain Couderc, Jean Bigeon
This paper proposes a way to combine the Mesh Adaptive Direct Search (MADS) algorithm with the Cross-Entropy (CE) method for non smooth constrained optimization. The CE method is u…
Constrained stochastic blackbox optimization using a progressive barrier and probabilistic estimates
Kwassi Joseph Dzahini, Michael Kokkolaras, Sébastien Le Digabel
This work introduces the StoMADS-PB algorithm for constrained stochastic blackbox optimization, which is an extension of the mesh adaptive direct-search (MADS) method originally de…
Machine Learning in Airline Crew Pairing to Construct Initial Clusters for Dynamic Constraint Aggregation
Yassine Yaakoubi, François Soumis, Simon Lacoste-Julien
The crew pairing problem (CPP) is generally modelled as a set partitioning problem where the flights have to be partitioned in pairings. A pairing is a sequence of flight legs sepa…
An Electric Vehicles Migration Framework for Public Institutions in Developing Countries
El Mehdi Er Raqabi, Wenkai Li
Electric vehicles, noted EV, with smaller environmental footprint than traditional gasoline vehicles or hybrids, are growing rapidly worldwide. Several countries such as Norway and…
Counting independent sets in Riordan graphs
Gi-Sang Cheon, Ji-Hwan Jung, Bumtle Kang +4
The notion of a Riordan graph was introduced recently, and it is a far-reaching generalization of the well-known Pascal graphs and Toeplitz graphs. However, apart from a certain su…
RISCuer: A Reliable Multi-UAV Search and Rescue Testbed
Mohamed Abdelkader, Usman A. Fiaz, Noureddine Toumi +2
We present the Robotics Intelligent Systems & Control (RISC) Lab multiagent testbed for reliable search and rescue and aerial transport in outdoor environments. The system consists…
Scaled Projected-Directions Methods with Application to Transmission Tomography
Guillaume Mestdagh, Yves Goussard, Dominique Orban
Statistical image reconstruction in X-Ray computed tomography yields large-scale regularized linear least-squares problems with nonnegativity bounds, where the memory footprint of…
