The Second Harmonic Generation (SHG), a process that turns out to be a good test case in the physics lab, can also be considered as a fairly simple theoretical test function for g...
We suggest a new heuristic for solving unconstrained continuous optimization problems. It is based on a generalized version of the variable neighborhood search metaheuristic. Diff...

In this paper, we study the performances of the NEW Unconstrained Optimization Algorithm (NEWUOA) with different numbers of interpolation points. NEWUOA is a trust region method, ...
A fitness function is needed for a Genetic Algorithm (GA) to work, and it appears natural that the combination of objectives and constraints into a single scalar function using ar...
Abstract. In this paper, we consider the minimization of a relevant energy consumption related cost function in the context of sensor networks where correlated sources are generate...
