quadratic assignment problem (17 Ergebnisse)

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Air Force has placed a high priority on developing new and innovative ways to use Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) currently funds many projects that deal with the advancement of UAV research. The ultimate goal of the Air Force is to use UAVs in operations that are highly dangerous to pilots, mainly the suppression of enemy air defenses (SEAD). With this goal in mind, formation structuring of autonomous or semiautonomous UAVs is of future importance. This particular research investigates the optimization of heterogeneous UAV multichannel communications in formation. The problem maps to the multiob jective Quadratic Assignment Problem (mQAP). Optimization of this problem is done through the use of a Multiob jective Evolutionary Algorithm (MOEA) called the Multiob jective Messy Genetic Algorithm II (MOMGAII). Experimentation validates the attainment of an acceptable Pareto Front for a variety of mQAP benchmarks. It was observed that building block size can affect the location vectors along the current Pareto Front. The competitive templates used during testing perform best when they are randomized before each building block size evaluation. This tuning of the MOMGAII parameters creates a more effective algorithm for the variety of mQAP benchmarks, when compared to the initial experiments. Thus this algorithmic approach would be useful for Air Force decision makers in determining the placement of UAVs in formations.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Numerical experiments are performed to know which method, the direct second-order method or the first-order method is superior, both in eigenvalue assignment and norm reduction of the feedback matrices. Two standard approaches to compute eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a Quadratic Matrix Pencil are defined, one with finding the relation between standard eigenvalue problems and quadratic eigenvalue problems and the other with finding the relation between generalized and quadratic eigenvalue problems. The existence and uniqueness results for both the problems, the matrix second order case and for the partial eigenvalue assignment problem for the matrix pencil, and Orthogonality relations between the eigenvectors of the linear and quadratic matrix pencil are defined. The solutions are proposed for the partial eigenvalue assignment problems for the quadratic pencil where only the partial knowledge of eigenvalues and eigenvectors are required.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 72 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -In this book, we consider the benchmark quadratic assignment problem which is very difficult NP-hard problem that has several practical applications. Several exact and heuristic algorithms are developed for solving the problem. In general, large sized instances cannot easily be solved optimally by an exact algorithm, but there are some situations where only exact optimal solution is required. Hence, we first present a reformulation of the problem, and then we apply simple and data-guided lexisearch algorithm to obtain exact optimal solutions to the problem. We also develop simple and improved genetic algorithms using sequential constructive crossover operator to find heuristic solution to the problem. Finally, a hybrid algorithm that combines lexisearch and genetic algorithms is developed. The proposed algorithm uses lexisearch algorithm to generate initial population, self-adaptive three crossover operators, and randomly one of four mutation operators, restricted combined mutation operator as local search, and multi-parent sequential constructive crossover as immigration method. Experimental results on benchmark QAPLIB instances show the effectiveness of the developed algorithms.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 104 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In this book a generic library of efficientmetaheuristics for combinatorial optimization ispresented. In the version at hand classes thatfeature local search, simulated annealing, tabusearch, guided local search and greedy randomizedadaptive search procedure were implemented.Most notably a generic implementation features theadvantage that the problem dependent classes andmethods only need to be realized once withouttargeting a specific algorithm because these parts ofthe source code are shared among all presentalgorithms contained in EAlib.This main advantage is then exemplary demonstratedwith the quadratic assignment problem. The sourcecode of the QAP example can also be used as ancommented reference for future problems.Concluding the experimental results of the individualmetaheuristics reached with the presentedimplementation are presented.

Zustand: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 308 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | The quadratic assignment problem (QAP) was introduced in 1957 by Koopmans and Beckmann to model a plant location problem. Since then the QAP has been object of numerous investigations by mathematicians, computers scientists, ope- tions researchers and practitioners. Nowadays the QAP is widely considered as a classical combinatorial optimization problem which is (still) attractive from many points of view. In our opinion there are at last three main reasons which make the QAP a popular problem in combinatorial optimization. First, the number of re- life problems which are mathematically modeled by QAPs has been continuously increasing and the variety of the fields they belong to is astonishing. To recall just a restricted number among the applications of the QAP let us mention placement problems, scheduling, manufacturing, VLSI design, statistical data analysis, and parallel and distributed computing. Secondly, a number of other well known c- binatorial optimization problems can be formulated as QAPs. Typical examples are the traveling salesman problem and a large number of optimization problems in graphs such as the maximum clique problem, the graph partitioning problem and the minimum feedback arc set problem. Finally, from a computational point of view the QAP is a very difficult problem. The QAP is not only NP-hard and - hard to approximate, but it is also practically intractable: it is generally considered as impossible to solve (to optimality) QAP instances of size larger than 20 within reasonable time limits.
