A deterministic algorithm to compute the cosine measure of a finite positive spanning set [PDF]
Optimization Letters, 2020 Originally developed in 1954, positive bases and positive spanning sets have been found to be a valuable concept in derivative-free optimization (DFO). The quality of a positive basis (or positive spanning set) can be quantified via the {\em cosine measure} and convergence properties of certain DFO algorithms are intimately linked to the value of this ...

Using Positive Spanning Sets to Achieve d-Stationarity with the Boosted DC Algorithm [PDF]
Vietnam Journal of Mathematics, 2020 AbstractThe Difference of Convex functions Algorithm (DCA) is widely used for minimizing the difference of two convex functions. A recently proposed accelerated version, termed BDCA for Boosted DC Algorithm, incorporates a line search step to achieve a larger decrease of the objective value at each iteration. Thanks to this step, BDCA usually converges

A multi-layer regulatory landscape of chilling requirement revealed by stage-resolved transcriptomics and hormone profiling in peach floral buds [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceBud dormancy and chilling requirement (CR) are fundamental to the climate adaptation of temperate fruit trees, yet the regulatory mechanisms translating winter chill into genotype-specific dormancy release remain poorly resolved.

Obesity and COVID-19 mortality are correlated
Scientific Reports, 2023 In view of a conspicuous absence of any cross-country study linking obesity and COVID-19 mortality, we conduct an empirical analysis of plausible associations between COVID-19 mortality and the proportion of obese in the adult population distributed ...
