Symbolic Regression and Multi‐Objective Optimization of the Flory–Huggins Interaction Parameter for Hydrogels

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
We develop a data‐driven method to derive the mathematical expressions of the Flory–Huggins interaction parameter χ for the swelling behavior of temperature–responsive hydrogels. Starting from initial assumptions of χ, our workflow combines Bayesian optimization, Flory–Rehner theory, and symbolic regression to generate candidate χ expressions.

Fitting spending functions

Statistics in Medicine, 2009
AbstractGroup sequential monitoring is used to provide guidance on stopping a clinical trial in progress based on interim evaluation of its efficacy objectives. A trial could stop because an experimental regimen (1) is efficacious, (2) lacks any sign of efficacy, or (3) is specifically less efficacious than a control.

Properties of Symmetric Fitness Functions

IEEE Transactions on Evolutionary Computation, 2006
The properties of symmetric fitness functions are investigated. We show that the search spaces obtained from symmetric functions have the zero-correlation structures between fitness and distance. It is also proven that symmetric functions induce a class of the hardest problems in terms of the epistasis variance and its variants.

Evolving Fitness Landscapes with Complementary Fitness Functions

2020
Given an optimization problem, local search algorithms may fail to reach optimal solutions when faced to difficult and unsuitable fitness landscapes. Climbing based optimization is sensitive to unexpected distribution of local optima. In this paper, we aim at modifying the initial fitness landscape of a problem in order to better fit climbing ...

Fitting the correlation function

Applied Optics, 2000
The whole correlation function of the intensity of scattered light is usually determined from a single realization of the photocurrent. As a result, the values of the correlation function at different delay times are not statistically independent. A standard least-squares fitting procedure is not optimal for an analysis of such data.

Fitting of multivariate functions

Proceedings of the IEEE, 1987
This research presents a nonparametric algorithm for fitting of a multivariate function from noisy data. Conditions are provided that assure local and global convergence in probability. Suggestions are stated for practical use of the algorithm.

The inverse of fitting's functional

2005
The evaluation of a goal for a logic program can be viewed as the search for an answer, written in the constraints language, that correctly implies the goal. We propose a small set of inference rules, correct w.r.t. the completion of a program and the Clark equational theory, which is strong enough to compute a complete set of answers for extended ...

A guide for fitness function design

Proceedings of the 13th annual conference companion on Genetic and evolutionary computation, 2011
Fitness function design is often both a design and performance bottleneck for evolutionary algorithms. The fitness function for a given problem is directly related to the specifications for that problem. This paper outlines a guide for transforming problem specifications into a fitness function.

Fitness function

Proceedings of the 8th ACM conference on Creativity and cognition, 2011
The process of creating art is an optimization problem for which the objective function is probably unknown and possibly undefinable. That objective function is imposed on the artist by an environment which may be composed of any of a number of sources: peers, a jury, society, the self.
