This paper aims to make a trade‐off between performance and robustness in stochastic
control systems with probabilistic uncertainties. For this purpose, we develop a surrogate …

This work focuses on the use of the substitution modeling techniques and their combination
with metaheuristics for the rapid optimal sizing of (not only) CMOS analog circuits. The case …

The design of coupled-resonator microwave band-pass filter is very often based on the
physical implementation of a coupling matrix by correctly dimensioning the filter …

Due to the manufacturing limitations, the task of optimal analog active filter design by hand is
very difficult. Evolutionary computation may be a competent implement for automatic …

Optimal sizing of analog circuits is a hard and time-consuming challenge. Nowadays,
analog designers are more than ever interested in develo** solutions for automating such …

Low-voltage low-power (LVLP) circuit design and optimization is a hard and time-consuming
task. In this study, we are interested in the application of the newly proposed meta-modelling …

Computationally expensive simulations make challenges for analog/RF circuit and
