Black-box Optimizers vs Taste Shocks

open access: yes, 2023
We evaluate and extend the solution methods for models with binary and multiple continuous choice variables in dynamic programming, particularly in cases where a discrete state space solution method is not viable. Therefore, we approximate the solution using taste shocks or black-box optimizers that applied mathematicians use to benchmark their ...

Targeted modulation of IGFL2‐AS1 reveals its translational potential in cervical adenocarcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cervical adenocarcinoma patients face worse outcomes than squamous cell carcinoma counterparts despite similar treatment. The identification of IGFL2‐AS1's differential expression provides a molecular basis for distinguishing these histotypes, paving the way for personalized therapies and improved survival in vulnerable populations globally.

Optimal Parameter Choices via Precise Black-Box Analysis [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference 2016, 2016
It has been observed that some working principles of evolutionary algorithms, in particular, the influence of the parameters, cannot be understood from results on the asymptotic order of the runtime, but only from more precise results. In this work, we complement the emerging topic of precise runtime analysis with a first precise complexity theoretic ...

Pre‐analytical optimization of cell‐free DNA and extracellular vesicle‐derived DNA for mutation detection in liquid biopsies

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Pre‐analytical handling critically determines liquid biopsy performance. This study defines practical best‐practice conditions for cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) and extracellular vesicle–derived DNA (evDNA), showing how processing time, storage conditions, tube type, and plasma input volume affect DNA integrity and mutation detection.

Enhancing the Transferability of Adversarial Patch via Alternating Minimization

open access: yesInternational Journal of Computational Intelligence Systems
Adversarial patches, a type of adversarial example, pose serious security threats to deep neural networks (DNNs) by inducing erroneous outputs. Existing gradient stabilization methods aim to stabilize the optimization direction of adversarial examples ...

WaveAttn-AdvGAN: Image adversarial example generation method based on discrete wavelet transform and global grouped coordinate attention

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal
Deep neural networks (DNNs) excel at image classification tasks, but their vulnerability to adversarial examples raise serious security concerns. Although existing adversarial attack methods demonstrate certain threat levels in black-box scenarios, they ...

Improved Differential Evolution for Large-Scale Black-Box Optimization

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
The demand for solving large-scale complex problems continues to grow. Many real-world problems are described by a large number of variables that interact with each other in a complex way.

Engineered extracellular vesicles enriched with the miR‐214/199a cluster enhance the efficacy of chemotherapy in ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the miR‐214/199a cluster is associated with recurrence in ovarian cancer. Engineered small extracellular vesicles (m214‐sEVs) elevate miR‐214‐3p/miR‐199a‐5p in tumor cells, suppress β‐catenin, TLR4, and YKT6 signaling, reprogram tumor‐derived sEV cargo, reduce chemoresistance and migration, and enhance carboplatin efficacy and survival in ...

Bayesian Optimization for Instruction Generation

open access: yesApplied Sciences
The performance of Large Language Models (LLMs) strongly depends on the selection of the best instructions for different downstream tasks, especially in the case of black-box LLMs.
