Minorant methods for stochastic global optimization
Branch and bound method and Pijavskii's method are extended for solution of global stochastic optimization problems. These extensions employ a concept of stochastic tangent minorants and majorants of the integrand function as a source of global information on the objective function. A calculus of stochastic tangent minorants is developed.
متن کاملConcurrent Stochastic Methods for Global Optimization
The global optimization problem, finding the lowest minimizer of a nonlinear function of several variables that has multiple local minimizers, appears well suited to concurrent computation. This paper presents a new parallel algorithm for the global optimization problem. The algorithm is a stochastic method related to the multi-level single-linkage methods of Rinnooy Kan and Timmer for sequenti...
متن کاملStochastic Methods for Multi-Objective Optimization
Real-world optimization problems often involve multiple, competing objectives in a highly complex search space. Multi-objective problems distinguish themselves from single-objective problems in that when preference information is absent no optimal solution is clearly defined but rather a set of alternative trade-off solutions exist, which are called the Pareto-optimal front. Generating Pareto-o...

متن کاملGlobal optimization in systems biology: stochastic methods and their applications.
Mathematical optimization is at the core of many problems in systems biology: (1) as the underlying hypothesis for model development, (2) in model identification, or (3) in the computation of optimal stimulation procedures to synthetically achieve a desired biological behavior. These problems are usually formulated as nonlinear programing problems (NLPs) with dynamic and algebraic constraints. ...
