Multi-criteria Search and Optimization

چکیده
X-ray spectroscopy diagnostics have been widely used as a standard technique to determine the temperature and density of astrophysical and laboratory plasmas. Traditional techniques have relied on performing an interactive search with a graphical user interface to select theoretical model parameters that best fit the data. We use a Pareto optimal genetic algorithm to drive a search of model parameters that produce high-quality simultaneous fits of spectra and spatially-resolved emissivity profiles. Preliminary results indicate that our Pareto optimal genetic algorithm is able to quickly find physically meaningful solutions.

Using composite ranking to select the most appropriate Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) method in the optimal operation of the Dam reservoir
In this study, the performance of the algorithms of whale, Differential evolutionary, crow search, and Gray Wolf optimization were evaluated to operate the Golestan Dam reservoir with the objective function of meeting downstream water needs. Also, after defining the objective function and its constraints, the convergence degree of the algorithms was compared with each other and with the absolut...
متن کاملProbabilistic Power Distribution Planning Using Multi-Objective Harmony Search Algorithm
In this paper, power distribution planning (PDP) considering distributed generators (DGs) is investigated as a dynamic multi-objective optimization problem. Moreover, Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) is applied to handle the uncertainty in electricity price and load demand. In the proposed model, investment and operation costs, losses and purchased power from the main grid are incorporated in the f...
متن کاملCONFIGURATION OPTIMIZATION OF TRUSSES USING A MULTI HEURISTIC BASED SEARCH METHOD
Different methods are available for simultaneous optimization of cross-section, topology and geometry of truss structures. Since the search space for this problem is very large, the probability of falling in local optimum is considerably high. On the other hand, different types of design variables (continuous and discrete) lead to some difficulties in the process of optimization. In this articl...

This paper presents an improved multi-objective group search optimizer (IMGSO) that is based on Pareto theory that is designed to handle multi-objective optimization problems. The optimizer includes improvements in three areas: the transition-feasible region is used to address constraints, the Dealer’s Principle is used to construct the non-dominated set, and the producer is updated using a tab...
متن کاملOptimization of Thermal Instability Resistance of FG Flat Structures using an Improved Multi-objective Harmony Search Algorithm
This paper presents a clear monograph on the optimization of thermal instability resistance of the FG (functionally graded) flat structures. For this aim, two FG flat structures, namely an FG beam and an FG circular plate, are considered. These structures are assumed to obey the first-order shear deformation theory, three-parameters power-law distribution of the constituents, and clamped bounda...
