Book excerpt: We study the behavior of the Simulated Annealing algorithm when searching for either exact or near-optimal solutions for combinatorial optimization problems. In general terms these problems consist in finding a global minimum of a cost function on a set of states (i.e. combinatorial objects, also called feasibble solutions). If an exact solution is to be found, it has been proved that Simulated Annealing is asimptotically worse than randomized local search. Following this result we prove in this paper that most of the known parallel versions of Simulated Annealing behave asymptotically worse than parallel randomized local search.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some of the hardest computational problems have been successfully attacked through the use of probabilistic algorithms, which have an element of randomness to them. Concepts from the field of probability are also increasingly useful in analyzing the performance of algorithms, broadening our understanding beyond that provided by the worst-case or average-case analyses. This book surveys both of these emerging areas on the interface of the mathematical sciences and computer science. It is designed to attract new researchers to this area and provide them with enough background to begin explorations of their own.

Download or read book Handbook of Natural Computing written by Grzegorz Rozenberg and published by Springer. This book was released on 2012-07-09 with total page 2052 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Natural Computing is the field of research that investigates both human-designed computing inspired by nature and computing taking place in nature, i.e., it investigates models and computational techniques inspired by nature and also it investigates phenomena taking place in nature in terms of information processing. Examples of the first strand of research covered by the handbook include neural computation inspired by the functioning of the brain; evolutionary computation inspired by Darwinian evolution of species; cellular automata inspired by intercellular communication; swarm intelligence inspired by the behavior of groups of organisms; artificial immune systems inspired by the natural immune system; artificial life systems inspired by the properties of natural life in general; membrane computing inspired by the compartmentalized ways in which cells process information; and amorphous computing inspired by morphogenesis. Other examples of natural-computing paradigms are molecular computing and quantum computing, where the goal is to replace traditional electronic hardware, e.g., by bioware in molecular computing. In molecular computing, data are encoded as biomolecules and then molecular biology tools are used to transform the data, thus performing computations. In quantum computing, one exploits quantum-mechanical phenomena to perform computations and secure communications more efficiently than classical physics and, hence, traditional hardware allows. The second strand of research covered by the handbook, computation taking place in nature, is represented by investigations into, among others, the computational nature of self-assembly, which lies at the core of nanoscience, the computational nature of developmental processes, the computational nature of biochemical reactions, the computational nature of bacterial communication, the computational nature of brain processes, and the systems biology approach to bionetworks where cellular processes are treated in terms of communication and interaction, and, hence, in terms of computation. We are now witnessing exciting interaction between computer science and the natural sciences. While the natural sciences are rapidly absorbing notions, techniques and methodologies intrinsic to information processing, computer science is adapting and extending its traditional notion of computation, and computational techniques, to account for computation taking place in nature around us. Natural Computing is an important catalyst for this two-way interaction, and this handbook is a major record of this important development.

Book excerpt: The opening chapter of this book aims to present and analyze the application of the simulated annealing algorithm in solving parameter optimization problems of various manufacturing processes. The main specifications of the studied optimization problems are analyzed, and the tuning of the simulated annealing algorithm-specific parameters in solving process optimization problems is also discussed. Genetic algorithm, particle swarm optimization, etc., are also considered in process parameter design problems. Next, the authors describe applications of the simulated annealing method to biological macromolecular systems. The first important example is the reconstruction of an inappropriate three-dimensional (3D) structure of a functional site in a protein, built based on X-ray crystallographic experiments. The authors determine that the simulated annealing scheme is a powerful method that is applicable for resolving the local minimum problem in various scientific fields related to biological macromolecular systems. Following this, the development of the simulated annealing based MPPT method is detailed and simulations evaluating the performance of the technique are highlighted. Special focus is also paid to the parameters of the simulated annealing method, as well as which of these have the most influence based on the PV system configuration. Continuing, this collection proposes the application of simulated annealing algorithm to detect, from a fixed and random set of temperatures of the radiant zones of oven, the best temperatures that must be assigned to the heating zones. An example of the optimization of the heating stage of the high-density polyethylene (HDPE) grade sheet is presented. Another chapter discusses how, to reconstruct a porous media from two-dimensional (2D) images to three-dimensional (3D) images, several parameters (such as the spatial correlation) must be preserved. Otherwise, the 2D grain size distribution is known to be different from the 3D grain size distribution. Thus, a simulated annealing method to correct the grain size distribution from 2D to 3D is proposed. In the next study, a maximization methodology to recover energy (considering installation feasibility) was proposed to allocate recovery machines within water networks by using simulated annealing techniques. The authors suggest that simulated annealing, in the proposed methodology, is a powerful water management tool that may aid in the search for sustainability in irrigation networks. In the book's conclusion, the performance of a variable Markov chain length method in unconstrained optimization problems has been studied experimentally. For this purpose, eighteen benchmark optimization functions with different dimensions were employed to compare performance and convergence behavior of this algorithm to the standard simulated annealing algorithm with different Markov chain lengths.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Simulated annealing (SA) is a stochastic optimization method with principles taken from the physical process called “annealing” which aims to bring a solid to its ground state or state of minimum energy. SA is known as a simple heuristic tool suitable for providing direct or approximate solutions to a wide variety of combinatorial problems. This paper is concerned with the problem of determining optimal exact experimental designs with observations and two-level factors assuming the existence of correlated errors with known correlation structure. A simulated annealing algorithm has been developed andapplied for the search of D- and A- optimal designs. An extensive discussion regarding the right choices of the initial parameters is presented and a method of self-improvement of the algorithm is suggested via a series of repeated executions. Finally, a version of the SA algorithm is used to find optimal exact designs in the case of continuous observations with known covariance function.
