Tuning approximate dynamic programming policies for ambulance redeployment via direct search
Stochastic Systems, 2014 In this paper we consider approximate dynamic programming methods for ambulance redeployment. We first demonstrate through simple examples how typical value function fitting techniques, such as approximate policy iteration and linear programming, may not

Worst case complexity of direct search
EURO Journal on Computational Optimization, 2013 In this paper, we prove that the broad class of direct-search methods of directional type based on imposing sufficient decrease to accept new iterates shares the worst case complexity bound of steepest descent for the unconstrained minimization of a ...
