Global optimization by adapted diffusion

In this paper, we study a diffusion stochastic dynamics with a general diffusion coefficient. The main result is that adapting the diffusion coefficient to the Hamiltonian allows to escape local wide minima and to speed up the convergence of the ...
Global descent methods for unconstrained global optimization

We propose in this paper novel global descent methods for unconstrained global optimization problems to attain the global optimality by carrying out a series of local minimization. More specifically, the solution framework consists of a two-phase cycle ...
Anisotropic diffusion for image denoising based on diffusion tensors

In this paper, the anisotropic diffusion for image denoising is considered. A new method to construct diffusion tensors is proposed. The tensors obtained by our approach depend on four directional derivatives of the intensity of an image, and hence they ...
