Adaptive memory programming for constrained global optimization
2010
The problem of finding a global optimum of a constrained multimodal function has been the subject of intensive study in recent years. Several effective global optimization algorithms for constrained problems have been developed; among them, the multi-start procedures discussed in Ugray et al. [1] are the most effective. We present some new multi-start methods based on the framework of adaptive memory programming (AMP), which involve memory structures that are superimposed on a local optimizer. Computational comparisons involving widely used gradient-based local solvers, such as Conopt and OQNLP, are performed on a testbed of 41 problems that have been used to calibrate the performance of su…
Adaptive memory programming for the dynamic bipartite drawing problem
2020
Abstract The bipartite drawing problem is a well-known NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem with numerous applications. The aim is to minimize the number of edge crossings in a two-layer graph, in which the edges are drawn as straight lines. We consider the dynamic variant of this problem, called the dynamic bipartite drawing problem (DBDP), which consists of adding (resp. or removing) vertices and edges to (resp. or from) a given bipartite drawing, thereby obtaining a new drawing with a layout similar to that of the original drawing. To solve this problem, we propose a tabu search method that incorporates adaptive memory to search the solution space efficiently. In this study, we com…
