Machine learning–assisted global optimization of photonic devices [PDF]
Over the past decade, artificially engineered optical materials and nanostructured thin films have revolutionized the area of photonics by employing novel concepts of metamaterials and metasurfaces where spatially varying structures yield tailorable “by ...

Diffusions for Global Optimization
This paper describes a problem of finding a global minimum of a real- valued function defined on the unit hypercube in Euclidean n-space. The problem is changed to a stochastic differential equation by using the gradient of the above function as the drift term and a diffusion term which is interpreted as a constant times the square root of ...

An efficient parallel global optimization strategy based on Kriging properties suitable for material parameters identification [PDF]
Material parameters identification by inverse analysis using finite element computations leads to the resolution of complex and time-consuming optimization problems. One way to deal with these complex problems is to use meta-models to limit the number of

Global Optimization on an Interval [PDF]
This paper provides expressions for solutions of a one-dimensional global optimization problem using an adjoint variable which represents the available one-sided improvements up to the interval “horizon.” Interpreting the problem in terms of optimal stopping or optimal starting, the solution characterization yields two-point boundary problems as in ...

Fast multi-swarm optimization for dynamic optimization problems [PDF]
This article is posted here with permission of IEEE - Copyright @ 2008 IEEEIn the real world, many applications are non-stationary optimization problems. This requires that the optimization algorithms need to not only find the global optimal solution but

A hybrid multiagent approach for global trajectory optimization [PDF]
In this paper we consider a global optimization method for space trajectory design problems. The method, which actually aims at finding not only the global minimizer but a whole set of low-lying local minimizers(corresponding to a set of different design

Subdomain separability in global optimization
AbstractWe introduce a generalization of separability for global optimization, presented in the context of a simple branch and bound method. Our results apply to continuously differentiable objective functions implemented as computer programs. A significant search space reduction can be expected to yield an acceleration of any global optimization ...
