A new exclusion test for finding the global minimum
نویسنده
چکیده
Exclusion algorithms have been used recently to find all solutions of a system of nonlinear equations or to find the global minimum of a function over a compact domain. These algorithms are based on a minimization condition that can be applied to each cell in the domain. In this paper, we consider Lipschitz functions of order and give a new minimization condition for the exclusion algorithm. Furthermore, convergence and complexity results are presented for such algorithm.

On the Complexity of Exclusion Algorithms for Optimization
Exclusion algorithms are a well-known tool in the area of interval analysis for finding all solutions of a system of nonlinear equations or for finding the global minimum of a function over a compact domain. The present paper discusses a new class of tests for such algorithms in the context of global optimization, and presents complexity results concerning the resulting algorithms.
متن کاملExclusion regions for optimization problems
Branch and bound methods for finding all solutions of a global optimization problem in a box frequently have the difficulty that subboxes containing no solution cannot be easily eliminated if they are close to the global minimum. This has the effect that near each global minimum, and in the process of solving the problem also near the currently best found local minimum, many small boxes are cre...
متن کاملA New Hybrid Flower Pollination Algorithm for Solving Constrained Global Optimization Problems
Global optimization methods play an important role to solve many real-world problems. Flower pollination algorithm (FP) is a new nature-inspired algorithm, based on the characteristics of flowering plants. In this paper, a new hybrid optimization method called hybrid flower pollination algorithm (FPPSO) is proposed. The method combines the standard flower pollination algorithm (FP) with the par...
متن کاملA Nonsmooth Exclusion Test for Finding All Solutions of Nonlinear Equations
A new approach is proposed for finding all solutions of systems of nonlinear equations with bound constraints. The zero finding problem is converted to a global optimization problem whose global minima with zero objective value, if any, correspond to all solutions of the initial problem. A branch-and-bound algorithm is used with McCormick’s nonsmooth convex relaxations to generate lower bounds....
متن کاملPowerful Simulated-Annealing Algorithm Locates Global Minimum of Protein-Folding Potentials from Multiple Starting Conformations
Protein-folding potentials, designed with the explicit goal that the global energy minimum correspond to crystallographically observed conformations of protein molecules, may offer great promise toward calculating native protein structures. Achieving this promise, however, depends on finding an effective means of dealing with the multiple-minimum problem inherent in such potentials. In this stu...
