Search Results for "descent"

...Implements a number of meta-heuristic algorithms for Non-Linear Programming, including Genetic Algorithms, Differential Evolution, Evolutionary Algorithms, Simulated Annealing, Particle Swarm Optimization, Firefly Algorithm, Monte-Carlo Search, Local Search algorithms, Gradient-Descent-based algorithms, as well as some well-known network flow and other graph algorithms. A fast parallel implementation of the network simplex method, and some full-fledged parallel/distributed MIP solvers will be added in the next version. In general, emphasis is given in improving the efficiency of the algorithms in shared-memory models via java threads, since multi-core machines are so wide-spread today.

The Parameter Tuning Unity (PTU) aims to adapt the parameters of ever connected multi-agents system, or expert system with a plugged optimization heuristic likes the descent of gradient for instance.
