Extended ant colony optimization for non-convex mixed integer nonlinear programming
DOI:10.1016/j.cor.2008.08.015.png)
Abstract
En 中文
Two novel extensions for the well known ant colony optimization (ACO) framework are introduced here, which allow the solution of mixed integer nonlinear programs (MINLPs). Furthermore, a hybrid implementation (ACOmi) based on this extended ACO framework, specially developed for complex non-convex MINLPs, is presented together with numerical results. These extensions on the ACO framework have been developed to serve the needs of practitioners who face highly non-convex and computationally costly MINLPs. The performance of this new method is evaluated considering several non-convex MINLP benchmark problems and one real-world application. The results obtained by our implementation substantiate the success of this new approach. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
