Minorant methods for stochastic global optimization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We develop numerical methods for solution of stochastic global optimization problems: min$[F(x)=Ef(x,¦Ø)| xin X]$ and $min[F(x)=P{f(x, ¦Ø) ¡Ü0} | xin X]$, where x is a finite dimensional decision vector with possible values in the set X, ¦Ø is a random variable, $f(x,¦Ø)$ is a nonlinear function of variable x, E and P ...

Global stochastic optimization of stellarator coil configurations

open access: yesJournal of Plasma Physics, 2022
In the construction of a stellarator, the manufacturing and assembling of the coil system is a dominant cost. These coils need to satisfy strict engineering tolerances, and if those are not met the project could be cancelled as in the case of the National Compact Stellarator Experiment (NCSX) project (R.L.

Nonlinear optimization algorithm using monotonically increasing quantization resolution

open access: yesETRI Journal, 2023
We propose a quantized gradient search algorithm that can achieve global optimization by monotonically reducing the quantization step with respect to time when quantization is composed of integer or fixed-point fractional values applied to an ...

Optimization Design of Wind Turbine Blade Based on an Improved Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm Combined with Non-Gaussian Distribution

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2021
To overcome the problem of particle swarm optimization (PSO) being trapped in local minima, a particle swarm optimization algorithm combined with non-Gaussian stochastic distribution is presented for optimization design of wind turbine blade.
