Comparison of Monte Carlo and Deterministic Methods for Non-Adaptive Optimization
In this paper we compare the average performance of Monte Carlo methods for global optimization with non-adaptive deterministic alternatives. We analyze the behavior of the algori...

Annealing stochastic approximation Monte Carlo algorithm for neural network training
We propose a general-purpose stochastic optimization algorithm, the so-called annealing stochastic approximation Monte Carlo (ASAMC) algorithm, for neural network training. ASAMC c...
