A Framework for Derivative Free Algorithm Hybridization
Column generation is a basic tool for the solution of largescale mathematical programming problems. We present a class of column generation algorithms in which the columns are generated by derivative free algorithms, like population-based algorithms. This class can be viewed as a framework to define hybridization of free derivative algorithms. This framework has been illustrated in this article...
متن کاملMNH: A Derivative-Free Optimization Algorithm Using Minimal Norm Hessians
We introduce MNH, a new algorithm for unconstrained optimization when derivatives are unavailable, primarily targeting applications that require running computationally expensive deterministic simulations. MNH relies on a trust-region framework with an underdetermined quadratic model that interpolates the function at a set of data points. We show how to construct this interpolation set to yield...
متن کاملA Derivative-Free Optimization Algorithm Using Sparse Grid Integration
We present a new derivative-free optimization algorithm based on the sparse grid numerical integration. The algorithm applies to a smooth nonlinear objective function where calculating its gradient is impossible and evaluating its value is also very expensive. The new algorithm has: 1) a unique starting point strategy; 2) an effective global search heuristic; and 3) consistent local convergence...
متن کاملDerivative-Free Robust Optimization for Circuit Design
In this paper, we introduce a framework for derivative-free robust optimization based on the use of an efficient derivative-free optimization routine for mixed integer nonlinear problems. The proposed framework is employed to find a robust optimal design of a particular integrated circuit (namely a DC-DC converter commonly used in portable electronic devices). The proposed robust optimization a...
متن کاملShip Design Using Heuristic Optimization Methods
Preliminary ship design is currently more art than science, heavily dependent on highly experienced naval architects. The use of genetic algorithms is proposed as a method for improving ship design through more effective exploration of the design space. Three main points are advanced in this paper. First, genetic algorithms (GA) are a highly effective tool for the exploration of large-scale, no...
