Some smooth divergences for approximations
Pierre Bertrand, Wolfgang Stummer
For some smooth special case of generalized divergences as well as of new divergences (called scaled shift divergences), we derive approximations of the omnipresent (weighted)…

Hybrid Random Concentrated Optimization Without Convexity Assumption
Pierre Bertrand, Michel Broniatowski, Wolfgang Stummer
We propose a new random method to minimize deterministic continuous functions over subsets of high-dimensional space without assuming convexity. Our pr…
