Technical Note—A Stopping Criterion for the Golden-Ratio Search

Learning a Stopping Criterion for Local Search

the search for the self in becketts theatre: waiting for godot and endgame

this thesis is based upon the works of samuel beckett. one of the greatest writers of contemporary literature. here, i have tried to focus on one of the main themes in becketts works: the search for the real "me" or the real self, which is not only a problem to be solved for beckett man but also for each of us. i have tried to show becketts techniques in approaching this unattainable goal, base...

Automatic stopping criterion for anisotropic diffusion

We develop, apparently for the first time, an automatic criterion to choose when to stop the iteration in anisotropic diffusion signal reconstruction.

New stopping criterion for genetic algorithms

Genetic Algorithms have been successfully applied in a wide variety of problems. Although widely used, there are few theoretical guidelines for determining when to terminate the search. One result by Aytug and Koehler provides a loose bound on the number of GA generations needed to see all populations (and hence, an optimal solution) with a specified probability. In this paper we derive a tight...

A stopping criterion for active learning

Active learning (AL) is a framework that attempts to reduce the cost of annotating training material for statistical learning methods. While a lot of papers have been presented on applying AL to natural language processing tasks reporting impressive savings, little work has been done on defining a stopping criterion. In this work, we present a stopping criterion for active learning based on the...
