Surrogate‐based methods for black‐box optimization [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, 2016
AbstractIn this paper, we survey methods that are currently used in black‐box optimization, that is, the kind of problems whose objective functions are very expensive to evaluate and no analytical or derivative information is available. We concentrate on a particular family of methods, in which surrogate (or meta) models are iteratively constructed and

Optimization on Black Box Function Optimization Problem [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, 2015
There are a large number of engineering optimization problems in real world, whose input-output relationships are vague and indistinct. Here, they are called black box function optimization problem (BBFOP). Then, inspired by the mechanism of neuroendocrine system regulating immune system, BP neural network modified immune optimization algorithm (NN-MIA)

Black Box Optimization Using QUBO and the Cross Entropy Method [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Conference on Conceptual Structures, 2022
Black-box optimization (BBO) can be used to optimize functions whose analytic form is unknown. A common approach to realising BBO is to learn a surrogate model which approximates the target black-box function which can then be solved via white-box ...

Black-box optimization methods for hypersonic flow problems [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Fluid Engineering
This review examines the application of black-box optimization methods to hypersonic flow problems, with a particular emphasis on scenarios where computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations function as opaque, nontransparent models.

Black Box Optimization Benchmarking of the GLOBAL Method [PDF]

open access: yesEvolutionary Computation, 2012
GLOBAL is a multi-start type stochastic method for bound constrained global optimization problems. Its goal is to find the best local minima that are potentially global. For this reason it involves a combination of sampling, clustering, and local search.

Framework for Embedding Process Simulator in GAMS via Kriging Surrogate Model Applied to C3MR Natural Gas Liquefaction Optimization

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2021
Rigorous black-box simulations are useful to describe complex systems. However, it cannot be directly integrated into mathematical programming models in some algebraic modeling environments because of the lack of symbolic formulation.
