Simulated Annealing with Asymptotic Convergence for Nonlinear Constrained Global Optimization
Benjamin W. Wah,Tao Wang +1 more
TL;DR: Con constrained simulated annealing (CSA), a global minimization algorithm that converges to constrained global minima with probability one, is presented, for solving nonlinear discrete non-convex constrained minimization problems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simulated annealing with asymptotic convergence for nonlinear constrained optimization
TL;DR: It is proved that both CSA and CPSA asymptotically converge to a constrained global minimum with probability one in discrete optimization problems and is established the condition under which optimal solutions can be found in constraint-partitioned nonlinear optimization problems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improving the performance of weighted Lagrange-multiplier methods for nonlinear constrained optimization
TL;DR: An algorithm to dynamically control the relative weights between the objective and the constraints is proposed, able to eliminate divergence, reduce oscillation, and speed up convergence on both nonlinear continuous and discrete problems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficient and Adaptive Lagrange-Multiplier Methods for Nonlinear Continuous Global Optimization
Benjamin W. Wah,Tao Wang +1 more
TL;DR: This paper addresses three important issues in applying Lagrangian methods to solve optimization problems with inequality constraints, and proposes the MaxQ method, a trace-based method to pull the search trajectory from one saddle point to another in a continuous fashion without restarts.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
QMF filter bank design by a new global optimization method
TL;DR: It is shown that NOVEL finds better designs with respect to simulated annealing and genetic algorithms in solving QMF benchmark design problems, and that relaxing the constraints on transition bandwidth and stopband energy leads to significant improvements in the other performance measures.
