  2. Simulated annealing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulated_annealing

    In the simulated annealing algorithm, the relaxation time also depends on the candidate generator, in a very complicated way. Note that all these parameters are usually provided as black box functions to the simulated annealing algorithm. Therefore, the ideal cooling rate cannot be determined beforehand and should be empirically adjusted for ...

  3. Ant colony optimization algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ant_colony_optimization...

    While simulated annealing generates only one mutated solution, tabu search generates many mutated solutions and moves to the solution with the lowest fitness of those generated. To prevent cycling and encourage greater movement through the solution space, a tabu list is maintained of partial or complete solutions.

  4. Sudoku solving algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudoku_solving_algorithms

    Unlike the latter however, optimisation algorithms do not necessarily require problems to be logic-solvable, giving them the potential to solve a wider range of problems. Algorithms designed for graph colouring are also known to perform well with Sudokus. [13] It is also possible to express a Sudoku as an integer linear programming problem ...

  5. Adaptive simulated annealing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_simulated_annealing

    Adaptive simulated annealing (ASA) is a variant of simulated annealing (SA) algorithm in which the algorithm parameters that control temperature schedule and random step selection are automatically adjusted according to algorithm progress. This makes the algorithm more efficient and less sensitive to user defined parameters than canonical SA.

  6. Stochastic optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stochastic_optimization

    Indeed, this randomization principle is known to be a simple and effective way to obtain algorithms with almost certain good performance uniformly across many data sets, for many sorts of problems. Stochastic optimization methods of this kind include: simulated annealing by S. Kirkpatrick, C. D. Gelatt and M. P. Vecchi (1983) [10] quantum annealing

  7. Particle swarm optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_swarm_optimization

    A particle swarm searching for the global minimum of a function. In computational science, particle swarm optimization (PSO) [1] is a computational method that optimizes a problem by iteratively trying to improve a candidate solution with regard to a given measure of quality.

  8. Mathematical optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_optimization

    Common approaches to global optimization problems, where multiple local extrema may be present include evolutionary algorithms, Bayesian optimization and simulated annealing. Classification of critical points and extrema

  9. Markov chain Monte Carlo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markov_chain_Monte_Carlo

    For instance, interacting simulated annealing algorithms are based on independent Metropolis–Hastings moves interacting sequentially with a selection-resampling type mechanism. In contrast to traditional Markov chain Monte Carlo methods, the precision parameter of this class of interacting Markov chain Monte Carlo samplers is only related to ...
