With the advent of massively parallel computing coprocessors, numerical optimization for deep-learning disciplines is now possible. Complex real-time pattern recognition, for example, that can be used ...

SAE Transactions, Vol. 85, Section 3: 760430–760707 (1976), pp. 1673-1685 (13 pages) A practical procedure for the design of low drag, transonic airfoils is demonstrated. The procedure uses an ...

The course is designed to provide engineering students a view of optimization as a tool for engineering decision making. Students will be given a fundamental introduction to the optimization ...

In this paper the generalized Newton's method for LC¹ unconstrained optimization is investigated. This method is an extension of Newton's method for the smooth optimization. Some basic concepts are ...

Particle swarm optimization isn't usually seen as the first-choice technique for training a neural network but, as James McCaffrey demonstrates, it's a useful alternative. Particle swarm optimization ...
