Pricing American Options with a Non-Constant Penalty Parameter [PDF]
As the American early exercise results in a free boundary problem, in this article we add a penalty term to obtain a partial differential equation, and we also focus on an improved definition of the penalty term for American options. We replace the constant penalty parameter with a time-dependent function.

The Auxiliary Problem Principle with Self-Adaptive Penalty Parameter for Multi-Area Economic Dispatch Problem [PDF]
The auxiliary problem principle is a powerful tool for solving multi-area economic dispatch problem. One of the main drawbacks of the auxiliary problem principle method is that the convergence performance depends on the selection of penalty parameter. In

Penalty parameter of the penalty function method [PDF]
The penalty parameter of penalty function method is systematically analyzed and discussed. For the problem that Deb's feasibility-based rule doesnot give the detailed instruction as how to rank two solutions when they have the same constraint violation, an improved Deb's feasibility-based rule is presented, which can be seen as a reference standard ...

Model and solution for the traveling salesman problem with multiple time windows [PDF]
This paper applies the multi-time window traveling salesman problem to not only optimize the logistics cost, but also effectively endow users with multiple discrete idle optional time periods to meet the time requirements of just-in-time production.

A new logarithmic penalty function approach for nonlinear constrained optimization problem [PDF]
This paper presents a new penalty function called logarithmic penalty function (LPF) and examines the convergence of the proposed LPF method. Furthermore, the LaGrange multiplier for equality constrained optimization is derived based on the first-order ...

Implementation Aspects in Regularized Structural Equation Models
This article reviews several implementation aspects in estimating regularized single-group and multiple-group structural equation models (SEM). It is demonstrated that approximate estimation approaches that rely on a differentiable approximation of non ...

The use of pseudo-inertia in asymptotic modelling of constraints in boundary value problems [PDF]
In recent publications, the validity of using positive and negative inertial penalty parameters and the advantage of this approach over the conventional positive penalty function approach have been established for linear eigenvalue problems.
