3rd World Congress on Global Optimization in Engineering & Science [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This proceedings volume addresses advances in global optimization—a multidisciplinary research field that deals with the analysis, characterization, and computation of global minima and/or maxima of nonlinear, non-convex, and nonsmooth functions in ...

An improved chaotic firefly algorithm for global numerical optimization

open access: yesInternational Journal of Computational Intelligence Systems, 2018
Firefly algorithm (FA) is a prominent metaheuristc technique. It has been widely studied and hence there are a lot of modified FA variants proposed to solve hard optimization problems from various areas.

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Global Optimization of Robotic Grasps

open access: yesRobotics: Science and Systems VII, 2011
This paper presents a procedure to optimize the quality of robotic grasps for objects that need to be held and manipulated in a specific way, characterized by a number of tight contact constraints. The main difficulties of the problem include that the set of feasible grasps is a manifold implicitly defined by a system of non-linear equations, the high ...

Fast Task Scheduling With Model Predictive Control Integrating a Priority-Based Heuristic

open access: yesIEEE Access
This paper presents a scalable Model Predictive Control (MPC) algorithm for task scheduling and real time re-scheduling. The use case motivating the work is given by the problem of managing the integration activities involved in the final assembly of the

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Low dimensional simplex evolution: a new heuristic for global optimization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper presents a new heuristic for global optimization named low dimensional simplex evolution (LDSE). It is a hybrid evolutionary algorithm. It generates new individuals following the Nelder-Mead algorithm and the individuals survive by the rule of

DIFFERENTIAL EVOLUTION WITH COMPETITIVE SETTING OF CONTROL PARAMETERS

open access: yesTASK Quarterly, 2007
This paper is focused on the adaptation of control parameters in differential evolution. Competition of various control parameter settings was proposed in order to ensure self-adaptation of parameter values in the search process.
