The optimization of solid-state laser cavities requires a deep understanding of the gain module, the most critical laser component. This study proposes a procedure for evaluating the performance of the solid-state laser gain module.

Uniqueness, stability and global convergence for a discrete inverse elliptic Robin transmission problem [PDF]
We derive a simple criterion that ensures uniqueness, Lipschitz stability and global convergence of Newton’s method for the finite dimensional zero-finding problem of a continuously differentiable, pointwise convex and monotonic function.

Global Convergence of Stochastic Gradient Hamiltonian Monte Carlo for Non-Convex Stochastic Optimization: Non-Asymptotic Performance Bounds and Momentum-Based Acceleration [PDF]
Stochastic gradient Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (SGHMC) is a variant of stochastic gradient with momentum where a controlled and properly scaled Gaussian noise is added to the stochastic gradients to steer the iterates towards a global minimum.

Globalization, Convergence, and History [PDF]
There were three epochs of growth experience after the mid-nineteenth century for what is now called the OECD “club”: the late nineteenth century, the middle years between 1914 and 1950, and the late twentieth century. The first and last epochs were ones of overall fast growth, globalization, and convergence.

Globally Convergent Inexact Newton Methods [PDF]
Inexact Newton methods are formulated that incorporate features designed to improve convergence from arbitrary starting points. For each method, a basic global convergence result is established to the effect that, under reasonable assumption, if a sequence of iterates has a limit point at which \(F'\) is invertible, then that limit point is a solution ...

Event logs play a crucial role in monitoring the status of IT systems. These logs contain text that describes how a system operates using natural language, which can be associated with sentiment polarity.

Global Continuous Optimization with Error Bound and Fast Convergence [PDF]
This paper considers global optimization with a black-box unknown objective function that can be non-convex and non-differentiable. Such a difficult optimization problem arises in many real-world applications, such as parameter tuning in machine learning,

Financial Globalization, Convergence and Growth [PDF]
Using a panel data set covering the period 1970-2004 and 96 countries, we provide empirical evidence that the composition of foreign capital, measured by the ratio FDI over total liabilities, has a positive effect on growth, directly and through convergence. Developing countries benefit relatively more as their initial GDP is smaller. These results are
