Working Paper: Sequential Parameter Optimization and Optimal Computational Budget Allocation for Noisy Optimization Problems
Sequential parameter optimization (SPO) is a heuristic that combines classical and modern statistical techniques to improve the performance of search algorithms. It includes a broad variety of meta models, e.g., linear models, random forest, and Gaussian process models (Kriging). The selection of an adequate meta model can have significant impact on SPO’s performance. A comparison of different ...
متن کاملA Review of Optimal Computing Budget Allocation Algorithms for Simulation Optimization Problem
Simulation and optimization are two arguably most used operations research (OR) tools. Optimization intends to choose the best element from some set of available alternatives. Stochastic simulation is a powerful modeling and software tool for analyzing modern complex systems. This capability complements the inherent limitation of traditional optimization, so the combining use of simulation an...
متن کاملAn alternative simulation budget allocation scheme for efficient simulation
We present an alternative simulation run allocation scheme for maximizing efficiency in simulation experiments for decision making under uncertainty. The issue of simulation efficiency is addressed from two perspectives: i) We want to minimize the total computation cost, with a constraint that the overall simulation quality must be higher than a desired level; ii) we would like to maximize the ...
متن کاملSimulation Budget Allocation for Further Enhancing the Efficiency of Ordinal Optimization
Ordinal Optimization has emerged as an efficient technique for simulation and optimization. Exponential convergence rates can be achieved in many cases. In this paper, we present a new approach that can further enhance the efficiency of ordinal optimization. Our approach determines a highly efficient number of simulation replications or samples and significantly reduces the total simulation cos...
متن کاملA new stochastic 3D seismic inversion using direct sequential simulation and co-simulation in a genetic algorithm framework
Stochastic seismic inversion is a family of inversion algorithms in which the inverse solution was carried out using geostatistical simulation. In this work, a new 3D stochastic seismic inversion was developed in the MATLAB programming software. The proposed inversion algorithm is an iterative procedure that uses the principle of cross-over genetic algorithms as the global optimization techniqu...
