We propose a Greedy strategy to solve the problem of Graph Cut, called GGC. It starts from the state where each data sample is regarded as a cluster and dynamically merges the two clusters which reduces the value of the global objective…
Stochastic-gradient-based optimization has been a core enabling methodology in applications to large-scale problems in machine learning and related areas. Despite the progress, the gap between theory and practice remains significant, with…
Gaussian processes (GP) are a well studied Bayesian approach for the optimization of black-box functions. Despite their effectiveness in simple problems, GP-based algorithms hardly scale to high-dimensional functions, as their per-iteration…
Parallel algorithms on CPU and GPU are implemented for the Unified Gas-Kinetic Scheme and their performances are investigated and compared by a two dimensional channel flow case. The parallel CPU algorithm has a one dimensional block…
Gaussian processes (GPs) are widely used in nonparametric regression, classification and spatio-temporal modeling, motivated in part by a rich literature on theoretical properties. However, a well known drawback of GPs that limits their use…
Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are used to solve search and optimization problems in which an optimal solution can be found using an iterative process with probabilistic and non-deterministic transitions. However, depending on the problem's…
The design of quantum circuits is often still done manually, for instance by following certain patterns or rule of thumb. While this approach may work well for some problems, it can be a tedious task and present quite the challenge in other…

Combinatorial optimization problems for clustering are known to be NP-hard. Most optimization methods are not able to find the global optimum solution for all datasets. To solve this problem, we propose a global optimal path-based…
Graph partitioning is one of an important set of well-known compute-intense (NP-hard) graph problems that devolve to discrete constrained optimization. We sampled solutions to the problem via two different quantum-ready methods to…
Distributed optimization is an essential paradigm to solve large-scale optimization problems in modern applications where big-data and high-dimensionality creates a computational bottleneck. Distributed optimization algorithms that exhibit…
The {\sc $c$-Balanced Separator} problem is a graph-partitioning problem in which given a graph $G$, one aims to find a cut of minimum size such that both the sides of the cut have at least $cn$ vertices. In this paper, we present new…

In real-life applications, most optimization problems are variants of well-known combinatorial optimization problems, including additional constraints to fit with a particular use case. Usually, efficient algorithms to handle a restricted…
Computation of (approximate) polynomials common factors is an important problem in several fields of science, like control theory and signal processing. While the problem has been widely studied for scalar polynomials, the scientific…
We introduce the \emph{graphical reconfigurable circuits (GRC)} model as an abstraction for distributed graph algorithms whose communication scheme is based on local mechanisms that collectively construct long-range reconfigurable channels…
The complex regulatory dynamics of a biological network can be succinctly captured using discrete logic models. Given even sparse time-course data from the system of interest, previous work has shown that global optimization schemes are…

Gaussian Process (GP) models provide a flexible framework for prediction and uncertainty quantification. For most covariance functions, however, exact GP prediction with $n$ points scales as $\mathcal{O}(n^3)$, making it prohibitively…
