Global Continuous Optimization with Error Bound and Fast Convergence [PDF]
, 2015 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,

Global convergence analysis of the bat algorithm using a markovian framework and dynamical system theory [PDF]
Expert systems with applications, 2018 The bat algorithm (BA) has been shown to be effective to solve a wider range of optimization problems. However, there is not much theoretical analysis concerning its convergence and stability.

Continuous-time integral dynamics for Aggregative Game equilibrium seeking [PDF]
, 2018 In this paper, we consider continuous-time semi-decentralized dynamics for the equilibrium computation in a class of aggregative games. Specifically, we propose a scheme where decentralized projected-gradient dynamics are driven by an integral control ...

Surface wettability control on zircaloy-4 by nanosecond Nd:YAG laser with beam homogenizer
AIP Advances, 2022 We introduce the laser-induced surface processing (LISP) method that imparts hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity using a Nd:YAG nanosecond laser, especially the high-fluence (HF) condition for fast processing and the low-fluence (LF) condition to control ...

Global Convergence: Aging and Long-Term Care Policy Challenges in the Developing World
Journal of Aging & Social Policy, 2019 Aging around the world poses a global challenge in eldercare. This challenge is particularly felt in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where population aging outpaces the development of aged care policies and services. This Perspective highlights
