On local search in d.c. optimization

2017 Constructive Nonsmooth Analysis and Related Topics (dedicated to the memory of V.F. Demyanov) (CNSA), 2017
This paper addresses a nonconvex optimization problem with the cost function and inequality constraints given by d.c. functions. The original problem is reduced to a problem without inequality constraints by the exact penalization procedure.

Local search in combinatorial optimization

2018
In the past three decades, local search has grown from a simple heuristic idea into a mature field of research in combinatorial optimization that is attracting ever-increasing attention. Local search is still the method of choice for NP-hard problems as it provides a robust approach for obtaining high-quality solutions to problems of a realistic size ...

Adding Local Search to Particle Swarm Optimization

2006 IEEE International Conference on Evolutionary Computation, 2006
Particle swarm optimization is a stochastic algorithm for optimizing continuous functions. It uses a population of particles that follow trajectories through the search space towards good optima. This paper proposes adding a local search component to PSO to improve its convergence speed. Two possible methods are discussed.

A hybrid local search operator for multiobjective optimization

2013 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation, 2013
In recent years, the development of hybrid approaches to solve multiobjective optimization problems has become an important trend in the evolutionary computation community. Despite hybrid approaches of mathematical programming techniques with multiobjective evolutionary algorithms are not very popular, when both fields are successfully coupled, results

A New Local Search Algorithm for Binary Optimization

INFORMS Journal on Computing, 2013
We develop a new local search algorithm for binary optimization problems, whose complexity and performance are explicitly controlled by a parameter Q, measuring the depth of the local search neighborhood. We show that the algorithm is pseudo-polynomial for general cost vector c, and achieves a w2/(2w-1) approximation guarantee for set packing problems

Anytime local search for distributed constraint optimization

International Joint Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems, 2008
Most former studies of Distributed Constraint Optimization Problems (DisCOPs) search considered only complete search algorithms, which are practical only for relatively small problems. Distributed local search algorithms can be used for solving DisCOPs.

Enhanced Ant Colony Optimization with Local Search

2018 IEEE/ACIS 17th International Conference on Computer and Information Science (ICIS), 2018
The ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm frequently gets trapped around local optimum solutions and does not approach the global optimum solution of vehicle routing problem. This work attempts to remedy this drawback by modifying the ant system (AS) algorithm, an instance of ACO.

Evolutionary parallel local search for function optimization

IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man and Cybernetics, Part B (Cybernetics), 2003
This paper proposes a kind of evolutionary parallel local search technique (EPLS) that integrates the reproduction mechanisms from evolutionary algorithms and simplex method. The major aim is to explore the tradeoff between exploration and exploitation for optimizing multimodal functions.

Optimal search strategies for pollutant source localization

2016 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS), 2016
This paper is aimed at developing optimal motion planning for a single autonomous surface vehicle (ASV) equipped with an on-board pollutant sensor that will maximize the sensor-related information available for source seeking. The ASV uses a nonlinear diffusion model of the pollutant source to estimate the intensity/level of the pollution at the ...
