Book Bio inspired Evolutionary Algorithms for Multi objective Optimization Applied to Engineering Applications

Download or read book Bio inspired Evolutionary Algorithms for Multi objective Optimization Applied to Engineering Applications written by Sandra DeBruyne and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although conventional mathematical methods for finding solutions to engineering applications have been around for many years, these methods are often quite computationally intensive when searching for an optimal solution. The idea of utilizing mathematically modeled animal hunting behaviors to find optimal solution sets to these types of problems is a relatively new field. These hunting behaviors, when incorporated into computerized optimization algorithms, have been shown in the literature to achieve results faster than other methods and return more accurate solutions with far fewer computational resources. The success of these bio-inspired algorithms to quickly search and intelligently predict the locations of the best solution set within the entire design space was the motivation for this research, the goal of which is to determine the applicability of this approach to engineering problem solving. Three research challenges present themselves when developing optimization algorithms for analyzing engineering problems. First, the number of problem objectives and constraints can range from two to hundreds. Second, the type of required interaction between the decision makers and the algorithm varies based on the type of engineering problem being optimized. And third, the algorithm's computational time and the required amount of data storage for solutions can be become extremely large, which often prohibits successful optimization of large complex problems. Following extensive research on existing algorithms, it was determined that although there were many successful algorithms in the literature, they all exhibited shortcomings, and that they could be greatly improved. This determination lead to the development of two new bio-inspired multi-objective optimization algorithms. The new Grey Wolf Multi-Objective (GWMO) algorithm developed here utilizes the mathematical model for the choreographed hunting behaviors of a grey wolf pack to intelligently search for and quickly predict the most optimal evenly spaced solution sets for standard multiobjective problems sets. The new Harris's Hawk Multi-Objective (HHMO) algorithm developed here utilizes the mathematical model for the cooperative hunting behaviors of hawks in surveying their environment from above to quickly direct the search for the location of the most optimal clustered solution sets for reference point multi-objective problem sets. This research had two objectives for determining its success at improving upon the multi-objective optimization algorithms that have been developed by others. The first objective was to analyze the effects of utilizing a-priori fitness methods over a-posteriori fitness methods within each of the GWMO and HHMO algorithm, since a-posteriori methods require large archival data storage spaces to maintain and analyze all possible solution sets. The GWMO and HHMO algorithms, with the combination of an a-priori method, evolutionary strategy and diversity method were shown to be successful at returning optimal solution sets without the need for this type of data storage. The second objective was to develop a novel flexible approach to algorithm development which could encompass both the wide and varied combinations of the number of objectives and the differing amounts of decision maker involvement required to optimize a variety of engineering applications. Both the GWMO and HHMO algorithms were successfully developed with this flexibility and showed a noticeable improvement over algorithms developed by others in optimizing a variety of engineering problems.

Book Nature Inspired Algorithms for Optimisation

Download or read book Nature Inspired Algorithms for Optimisation written by Raymond Chiong and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-04-28 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nature-Inspired Algorithms have been gaining much popularity in recent years due to the fact that many real-world optimisation problems have become increasingly large, complex and dynamic. The size and complexity of the problems nowadays require the development of methods and solutions whose efficiency is measured by their ability to find acceptable results within a reasonable amount of time, rather than an ability to guarantee the optimal solution. This volume 'Nature-Inspired Algorithms for Optimisation' is a collection of the latest state-of-the-art algorithms and important studies for tackling various kinds of optimisation problems. It comprises 18 chapters, including two introductory chapters which address the fundamental issues that have made optimisation problems difficult to solve and explain the rationale for seeking inspiration from nature. The contributions stand out through their novelty and clarity of the algorithmic descriptions and analyses, and lead the way to interesting and varied new applications.
