  A supervised particle swarm algorithm for real-parameter optimization
Cheung N., Ding X., Shen H. Applied Intelligence 43(4): 825-839, 2015.  Type: Article

Optimization using swarm algorithms is a topic that has attracted research since the introduction of the particle swarm optimization (PSO) paradigm in the 1990s. Many variants of the method aim at improving convergence while avoiding l...

  Global optimization: theory, algorithms, and applications
Locatelli M., Schoen F., SIAM, Philadelphia, PA, 2013. 445 pp.  Type: Book (978-1-611972-66-5)

The field of global optimization (GO) considers the optimization of an objective function f in a subset S of the real numbers called a feasible region. Since the conversion of maximization problems...

   Approximate branch-and-bound global optimization using B-spline hypervolumes
Park S. Advances in Engineering Software 45(1): 11-20, 2012.  Type: Article

Multidimensional unconstrained global optimization arises in a vast spectrum of applications, ranging from financial and physical to biological. Local methods cannot adequately deal with the often numerous local minima and other challe...

  Multiobjective search algorithm with subdivision technique
Jahn J. Computational Optimization and Applications 35(2): 161-175, 2006.  Type: Article

Constrained optimization refers to minimizing (or maximizing) an objective function under constraints based on possible values of the independent variable. In a practical constrained optimization problem, there can be multiple independ...

  Differential evolution: a practical approach to global optimization (Natural Computing Series)
Price K., Storn R., Lampinen J., Springer-Verlag New York, Inc., Secaucus, NJ, 2005. 538 pp.  Type: Book (9783540209508)

The solution of difficult optimization problems using robust, effective, fast, and, above all, easy-to-use algorithms is a very important problem in all fields of science and engineering. The authors present differential evolution (DE)...

  Accelerating branch-and-bound through a modeling language construct for relaxation-specific constraints
Sahinidis N., Tawarmalani M. Journal of Global Optimization 32(2): 259-280, 2005.  Type: Article

This paper reports on computational experiences using the branch and reduce optimization navigator (BARON) modeling language for solving global optimization problems. More specifically, the authors extend BARON, introducing the new con...

  On the multilevel structure of global optimization problems
Locatelli M. Computational Optimization and Applications 30(1): 5-22, 2005.  Type: Article

Locatelli presents a multilevel view of global optimization (GO) problems. He shows that a GO problem can often be seen at different levels, displaying a similar structure, even if different objects are observed at each level....

  Efficient algorithms for large scale global optimization: Lennard-Jones clusters
Locatelli M., Schoen F. Computational Optimization and Applications 26(2): 173-190, 2003.  Type: Article

A new and very efficient method for the large-scale global optimization of Lennard-Jones (L-J) clusters is presented in this paper. The problem, which consists of minimizing the potential energy of a cluster of particles that interact ...

  Convergence of alternating optimization
Bezdek J., Hathaway R. Neural, Parallel & Scientific Computations 11(4): 351-368, 2003.  Type: Article

A local and global convergence theory for the alternating method is presented in this paper. This method is an iterative procedure for minimizing a nonlinear function; at each step, a subset of the variables is selected, and the functi...

  A greedy EM algorithm for Gaussian mixture learning
Vlassis N., Likas A. Neural Processing Letters 15(1): 77-87, 2002.  Type: Article

The improvement described in applying Gaussian mixtures (k weighted sums with weights summing to one) to heterogeneous population data employs the expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm in a greedy manner, solving t...
