It’s been three-and-a-half years since generative AI exploded onto the scene. In this past year, progress has continued its relentless pace: Vibe coding took off, companies embraced agentic workflows, ...

Abstract: Metaheuristic algorithms have demonstrated strong effectiveness in solving complex real-world optimization problems. This paper presents two discrete metaheuristic approaches for the ...

Abstract: In this work, we propose a continuous-time distributed optimization algorithm with guaranteed zero coupling constraint violation and apply it to safe distributed control in the presence of ...
