Perpetual Orbit Coupled Simulated Annealing for Continuous Optimization
From MaRDI portal
Abstract: This paper proposes a novel technique called Perpetual Orbit (PO) to control the generation temperature of the Coupled Simulated Annealing (CSA) algorithm. The new algorithm, PO-CSA, takes advantage of the PO technique combined to the CSA's automatic quasi-optimal scheduling of the acceptance temperature to make optimization of continuous variables more robust w.r.t. the initialization parameters. The PO-CSA was tested with 14 optimization problems, compared to five reference algorithms, including the original CSA with two different initialization procedures. While the PO-CSA performed better than its competitors for the majority of the cost functions, its control of the generation temperature also proved to be more effective than the original CSA with exhaustively tuned initialization parameters. The new parameter-free method also proved more effective in the use of an extra budget of cost function evaluations when compared to the exhaustively tuned case.
