Minimization-Algorithms for Biological Multiple Field Optimization

چکیده
The software TRiP98 [1, 2, 3] is successfully used for patient treatment planning in the GSI pilot project. A crucial part of the treatment planning is the particle number optimization. The main goal of optimization is to achieve a target dose distribution as close as possible to the prescribed biological dose distribution. Multiple field optimization (MFO) allows a better target conformity and a sparing of organs-at-risk (OAR) by 20-50% in comparison with single field optimization (SFO) [5]. Thus MFO was implemented in TRiP98 and in 2007 the first patients were treated at GSI with MFO plans. In this contribution we examine three numerical algorithms, used to solve the nonlinear optimization problem.

متن کاملSDO relaxation approach to fractional quadratic minimization with one quadratic constraint
In this paper, we study the problem of minimizing the ratio of two quadratic functions subject to a quadratic constraint. First we introduce a parametric equivalent of the problem. Then a bisection and a generalized Newton-based method algorithms are presented to solve it. In order to solve the quadratically constrained quadratic minimization problem within both algorithms, a semidefinite optim...
متن کاملA particle swarm optimization algorithm for minimization analysis of cost-sensitive attack graphs
To prevent an exploit, the security analyst must implement a suitable countermeasure. In this paper, we consider cost-sensitive attack graphs (CAGs) for network vulnerability analysis. In these attack graphs, a weight is assigned to each countermeasure to represent the cost of its implementation. There may be multiple countermeasures with different weights for preventing a single exploit. Also,...
