Real-valued functions of complex arguments violate the Cauchy-Riemann conditions and, consequently, do not have Taylor series expansion. Therefore, optimization methods based on derivatives cannot be ...

Dual-stator permanent magnet motors (DSPMMs) have the advantages of fast control response, high torque density, and strong overload capacity, and thus are widely used in CNC machine tools, heavy ...

Abstract: We propose a new distributed optimization algorithm for solving a class of constrained optimization problems in which the objective function is separable (i.e., the sum of local objective ...

This paper discusses techniques for solving discrete optimization problems using quantum annealing. Practical issues likely to affect the computation include precision limitations, finite temperature, ...

Abstract: Sparse large-scale evolutionary multiobjective optimization has garnered substantial interest over the past years due to its significant practical implications. These optimization problems ...

In this article, as in industry, advanced process control (APC) refers primarily to multi-variable control. Multivariable control means adjusting multiple single-loop controllers in unison, to meet ...

In order to address the issues of complex system structure and variable selection difficulty for the current heavy haul railway line status evaluation system, a three-category and three-layer ...

We propose a novel surrogate-based global optimization algorithm, called PWAS, based on constructing a piecewise affine surrogate of the objective function over feasible samples. We introduce two ...
