In this paper, we propose a method for finding the best piecewise linearization of nonlinear functions. For this aim, we try to obtain the best approximation of a nonlinear function as a piecewise ...

Let $E$ be a set. Let $(A_i){1 \leq i \leq n}$ be a finite sequence of disjoint subsets of $E$, and let $(f_i){1 \leq i \leq n}$ be a finite sequence of real-valued ...

Abstract: Multistability is a property necessary in neural networks in order to enable certain applications (e.g., decision making), where monostable networks can be computationally restrictive. This ...

Abstract: We consider an optimization method that updates multi searching points based on piecewise rotational chaos system. In previous, some optimization methods utilizing chaos dynamics have been ...
