Book Classical and Evolutionary Algorithms in the Optimization of Optical Systems

Download or read book Classical and Evolutionary Algorithms in the Optimization of Optical Systems written by Darko Vasiljevic and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The optimization of optical systems is a very old problem. As soon as lens designers discovered the possibility of designing optical systems, the desire to improve those systems by the means of optimization began. For a long time the optimization of optical systems was connected with well-known mathematical theories of optimization which gave good results, but required lens designers to have a strong knowledge about optimized optical systems. In recent years modern optimization methods have been developed that are not primarily based on the known mathematical theories of optimization, but rather on analogies with nature. While searching for successful optimization methods, scientists noticed that the method of organic evolution (well-known Darwinian theory of evolution) represented an optimal strategy of adaptation of living organisms to their changing environment. If the method of organic evolution was very successful in nature, the principles of the biological evolution could be applied to the problem of optimization of complex technical systems.

Book Evolutionary Algorithms for Embedded System Design

Download or read book Evolutionary Algorithms for Embedded System Design written by Rolf Drechsler and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evolutionary Algorithms for Embedded System Design describes how Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) concepts can be applied to circuit and system design - an area where time-to-market demands are critical. EAs create an interesting alternative to other approaches since they can be scaled with the problem size and can be easily run on parallel computer systems. This book presents several successful EA techniques and shows how they can be applied at different levels of the design process. Starting on a high-level abstraction, where software components are dominant, several optimization steps are demonstrated, including DSP code optimization and test generation. Throughout the book, EAs are tested on real-world applications and on large problem instances. For each application the main criteria for the successful application in the corresponding domain are discussed. In addition, contributions from leading international researchers provide the reader with a variety of perspectives, including a special focus on the combination of EAs with problem specific heuristics. Evolutionary Algorithms for Embedded System Design is an excellent reference for both practitioners working in the area of circuit and system design and for researchers in the field of evolutionary concepts.

Book Soft Computing in Engineering Design and Manufacturing

Download or read book Soft Computing in Engineering Design and Manufacturing written by Pravir K. Chawdhry and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soft Computing has emerged as an important approach towards achieving intelligent computational paradigms where key elements are learning from experience in the presence of uncertainties, fuzzy belief functioos, and ·evolutioo of the computing strategies of the learning agent itself. Fuzzy, neural and evolutionary computing are the three major themes of soft computing. The book presents original research papers dealing with the theory of soft computing and its applicatioos in engineering design and manufacturing. The methodologies have been applied to a large variety of real life problems. Applicatioo of soft computing has provided the opportunity to integrate human like 'vagueness' and real life 'uncertainty' to an otherwise 'hard' computer programme. Now, a computer programme can learn, adapt, and evolve using soft computing. The book identifies the strengths and Iimitatioos of soft cOOlputing techniques, particularly with reference to their engineering applications. The applications range fran design optimisatioo to scheduling and image analysis. Goal optimisatioo with incomplete infmnatioo and under uncertainty is the key to solving real-life problems in design and manufacturing. Soft computing techniques presented in this book address these issues. Computatiooal complexity and efficient implementatioo of these techniques are also major concerns for realising useful industrial applications of soft computing. The different parts in the book also address these issues. The book cootains 9 parts, 8 of which are based 00 papers fran the '2nd On-line World Conference 00 Soft Computing in Engineering Design and Manufacture (WSC2),.

Book Lens Design and Optimization Using Multi objective Evolutionary Algorithms

Download or read book Lens Design and Optimization Using Multi objective Evolutionary Algorithms written by Shaine Joseph and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Non-Dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm 2 (NSGA 2) was used to optimize optical systems with multiple objectives. The systems selected for study are Cooke triplets, Petzval lens and double Gauss lens. The objectives are minimization of aberration coefficients for spherical aberration, distortion, and the sum of coefficients of all third order monochromatic aberrations. CODE V® was used as a ray tracer. A set of trade-off solutions representing the optima, known as Pareto-Optima in multi-objective analysis, was obtained. A comparison of obtained optima to the known optima was done. Pareto-Optima in objective space for the selected Petzval lens design problem are shown to exhibit saddle points having unique trade-off features, which can not be detected in traditional gradient-based scalar optimization. Various optimization strategies are illustrated which ensure a diverse set of Pareto-Optima offering alternate manufacturing choices. Based on the results, a fourth objective was identified (sum of lateral and axial color coefficients) this is necessary to make valid trade-off decisions. The expansion of objectives followed by re-optimization provided unique trade-off solutions. Based on power and symmetry distribution of the component elements for the Cooke triplet system, addition and deletion of elements were carried out. The fourth objective added for that study is the minimization of the required number of elements. For the double Gauss lens system, the Pareto optimal surface indicated alternate manufacturing choices. There is a clear diversity of the Pareto optimal front in both objective and decision vector space. These studies have clearly illustrated the advantages of evolutionary multi-objective optimization techniques in optical system design"--Abstract, leaf iii.
