Book Metaheuristics for Resource Deployment under Uncertainty in Complex Systems

Download or read book Metaheuristics for Resource Deployment under Uncertainty in Complex Systems written by Shuxin Ding and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-09-30 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metaheuristics for Resource Deployment under Uncertainty in Complex Systems analyzes how to set locations for the deployment of resources to incur the best performance at the lowest cost. Resources can be static nodes and moving nodes while services for a specific area or for customers can be provided. Theories of modeling and solution techniques are used with uncertainty taken into account and real-world applications used. The authors present modeling and metaheuristics for solving resource deployment problems under uncertainty while the models deployed are related to stochastic programming, robust optimization, fuzzy programming, risk management, and single/multi-objective optimization. The resources are heterogeneous and can be sensors and actuators providing different tasks. Both separate and cooperative coverage of the resources are analyzed. Previous research has generally dealt with one type of resource and considers static and deterministic problems, so the book breaks new ground in its analysis of cooperative coverage with heterogeneous resources and the uncertain and dynamic properties of these resources using metaheuristics. This book will help researchers, professionals, academics, and graduate students in related areas to better understand the theory and application of resource deployment problems and theories of uncertainty, including problem formulations, assumptions, and solution methods.

Book Toward Enhancing Metaheuristic Optimization Algorithms Using Center based Sampling Strategies for Solving Single  and Multi  Objective Large scale Problems

Download or read book Toward Enhancing Metaheuristic Optimization Algorithms Using Center based Sampling Strategies for Solving Single and Multi Objective Large scale Problems written by Hanan Hiba and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last decade, metaheuristic algorithms have become well-established approaches utilized for solving complex real-world optimization problems. Most metaheuristic algorithms have used stochastic strategies in their initialization as well as during the new candidate solution generation process where there is no a priori knowledge about the solution, which is a common assumption for any black-box optimization problem. In recent years, researchers have introduced a new concept called center-based sampling that can be used in any search component of the optimization process, but so far, it has mainly been utilized for population initialization. This concept clarifies that in a search space, the center point has a higher probability value to be closer to an unknown solution compared to a uniformly generated random point, especially when the dimension increases. Thus, this novel concept helps the optimizer to find a better solution efficiently. In this thesis, a comprehensive study has been conducted on the effect of center-based sampling to solve an optimization problem using three different levels of investigation. These levels are as follows: 1) no specific algorithm and no specific landscape (i.e., Monte-Carlo-based simulation); 2) a specific landscape but no specific algorithm (random search vs. center-based random search), and finally, 3) a specific algorithm and specific landscape (proposing three different schemes for using center-based sampling for solving Large-scale Global Optimization (LSGO) problems). Also, a center-based sampling for multi-objective optimization is proposed. Furthermore, in this thesis, I seek to investigate the properties and capabilities of center-based sampling during optimization, which can be extended to utilize it in machine learning techniques, as well. The proposed methods are evaluated on discrete and continuous Large-scale Global Optimization (LSGO) benchmark functions. The experimental results confirm that center based sampling has a crucial impact on improving the convergence rate of optimization/search algorithms when solving high-dimensional optimization problems.
