  1. 1. Algorithms for Costly Global Optimization

    Author : Nils-Hassan Quttineh; Kenneth Holmström; Hans Bruun Nielsen; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Optimization; systems theory; Optimeringslära; systemteori; Mathematics Applied Mathematics; Matematik tillämpad matematik;

    Abstract : There exists many applications with so-called costly problems, which means that the objective function you want to maximize or minimize cannot be described using standard functions and expressions. Instead one considers these objective functions as ``black box'' where the parameter values are sent in and a function value is returned. READ MORE

  2. 2. Models and Methods for Costly Global Optimization and Military Decision Support Systems

    Author : Nils-Hassan Quttineh; Kaj Holmberg; Torbjörn Larsson; Kevin Wood; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The thesis consists of five papers. The first three deal with topics within costly global optimization and the last two concern military decision support systems. READ MORE

  3. 3. Decomposition Methods for Combinatorial Optimization

    Author : Uledi Ngulo; Torbjörn Larsson; Nils-Hassan Quttineh; Egbert Mujuni; Athanasios Migdalas; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This thesis aims at research in the field of combinatorial optimization. Problems within this field often posses special structures allowing them to be decomposed into more easily solved subproblems, which can be exploited in solution methods. These structures appear frequently in applications. READ MORE
