abstract

investment plays a vital role on economic growth. one of the main objectives of all countries is to achieve sustainable economic growth and development. nowadays, a considerable amount of activities performed by the managers and investors in general is to make a portfolio of assets effectively meeting demand goals. in this study, mean-variance markowitz model by cardinality constraints and also a new innovative approach called big bang-big crunch algorithm are used to create a portfolio of assets. the algorithm proposed in this study compares with other algorithms such as simulated annealing, genetic, etc. by using datasets taken from the stock exchange indices in hong kong, iran and japan, the results indicate that the algorithm is competitive to solve the portfolio optimization problem efficiently.

STRUCTURAL OPTIMIZATION USING BIG BANG-BIG CRUNCH ALGORITHM: A REVIEW

The big bang-big crunch (BB-BC) algorithm is a popular metaheuristic optimization technique proposed based on one of the theories for the evolution of the universe. The algorithm utilizes a two-phase search mechanism: big-bang phase and big-crunch phase. In the big-bang phase the concept of energy dissipation is considered to produce disorder and randomness in the candidate population while in ...

BIG BANG – BIG CRUNCH ALGORITHM FOR LEAST-COST DESIGN OF WATER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS

The Big Bang-Big Crunch (BB–BC) method is a relatively new meta-heuristic algorithm which inspired by one of the theories of the evolution of universe. In the BB–BC optimization algorithm, firstly random points are produced in the Big Bang phase then these points are shrunk to a single representative point via a center of mass or minimal cost approach in the Big Crunch phase. In this paper, the...
