Primal-Dual Contextual Bayesian Optimization for Control System Online Optimization with Time-Average Constraints

Colin Neil Jones, Yuning Jiang, Wenjie Xu

This paper studies the problem of online performance optimization of constrained closed-loop control systems, where both the objective and the constraints are unknown black-box functions affected by exogenous time-varying contextual disturbances. A primal- ...

Quality-Constrained Encoding Optimization for Omnidirectional Video Streaming

Pascal Frossard, Roberto Gerson De Albuquerque Azevedo

Omnidirectional video streaming is usually implemented based on the representations of tiles, where the tiles are obtained by splitting the video frame into several rectangular areas and each tile is converted into multiple representations with different r ...

On the asymptotic behavior of the solutions to parabolic variational inequalities

Maria Colombo

We consider various versions of the obstacle and thin-obstacle problems, we interpret them as variational inequalities, with non-smooth constraint, and prove that they satisfy a new constrained Lojasiewicz inequality. The difficulty lies in the fact that, ...

A positive combinatorial formula for symplectic Kostka-Foulkes polynomials I: Rows

Thomas Gerber

We prove a conjecture of Lecouvey, which proposes a closed, positive combinatorial formula for symplectic Kostka-Foulkes polynomials, in the case of rows of arbitrary weight. To show this, we construct a new algorithm for computing cocyclage in terms of wh ...

Classifying Functions with Exact Synthesis

Giovanni De Micheli, Mathias Soeken, Eleonora Testa, Winston Jason Haaswijk

Due to recent advances, constraint solvers have become efficient tools for synthesizing optimum Boolean circuits. We take advantage of this by showing how SAT based exact synthesis may be used as a method for finding minimum length Boolean chains. As oppos ...
