Large Scale Problems

Modern real-valued optimization problems are complex and high-dimensional, and they are known as “large-scale global optimization (LSGO)” problems. Classic evolutionary algorithms (EAs) perform poorly on this class of problems because of the curse of dimensionality. Cooperative Coevolution (CC) is a high-performed framework for performing the decomposition of large-scale problems into smaller and easier subproblems by grouping objective variables. The efficiency of CC strongly depends on the size of groups and the grouping approach. In this study, an improved CC (iCC) approach for solving LSGO problems has been proposed and investigated. iCC changes the number of variables in subcomponents dynamically during the optimization process. The SHADE algorithm is used as a subcomponent optimizer. We have investigated the performance of iCC-SHADE and CC-SHADE on fifteen problems from the LSGO CEC’13 benchmark set provided by the IEEE Congress of Evolutionary Computation. The results of numerical experiments have shown that iCC-SHADE outperforms, on average, CC-SHADE with a fixed number of subcomponents. Also, we have compared iCC-SHADE with some state-of-the-art LSGO metaheuristics. The experimental results have shown that the proposed algorithm is competitive with other efficient metaheuristics.

Virtual Boundary Element

In this paper, the fast multipole virtual boundary element - least square method (Fast Multipole VBE - LSM) is proposed and used to simulate 2-D elastic problems, which is based on the fast multipole method (FMM) and virtual boundary element - least square method (VBE - LSM).The main idea of the method is to change computational model by applying the FMM to conventional VBE - LSM. The memory and operations could be reduced to be of linear proportion to the degree of freedom (DOF) and large scale problems could be effectively solved on a common desktop with this method. Numerical results show that this method holds virtues of high feasibility, accuracy and efficiency. Moreover, the idea of this method can be generalized and extended in application.

CL_MATCONT is a MATLAB package for the study of dynamical systems and their bifurcations. It uses a minimally augmented system for continuation of the Hopf curve. The Continuation of Invariant Subspaces (CIS) algorithm produces a smooth orthonormal basis for an invariant subspace [Formula: see text] of a parameter-dependent matrix A(s). We extend a minimally augmented system technique for location and continuation of Hopf bifurcations to large-scale problems using the CIS algorithm, which has been incorporated into CL_MATCONT. We compare this approach with using a standard augmented system and show that a minimally augmented system technique is more suitable for large-scale problems. We also suggest an improvement of a minimally augmented system technique for the case of the torus continuation.
