In today's day and time solving real-world complex problems has become fundamentally vital and critical task. Many of these are combinatorial problems, where optimal solutions are sought rather than exact solutions. Traditional optimization…

Genetic algorithms are a population-based Meta heuristics. They have been successfully applied to many optimization problems. However, premature convergence is an inherent characteristic of such classical genetic algorithms that makes them…

In swarm intelligence, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Differential Evolution (DE) have been successfully applied in many optimization tasks, and a large number of variants, where novel algorithm operators or components are…

In this work we are interested in stochastic particle methods for multi-objective optimization. The problem is formulated using parametrized, single-objective sub-problems which are solved simultaneously. To this end a consensus based…

In recent decades, cold atom experiments have become increasingly complex. While computers control most parameters, optimization is mostly done manually. This is a time-consuming task for a high-dimensional parameter space with unknown…

Drones are effective for reducing human activity and interactions by performing tasks such as exploring and inspecting new environments, monitoring resources and delivering packages. Drones need a controller to maintain stability and to…

We present a non-convex optimization algorithm metaheuristic, based on the training of a deep generative network, which enables effective searching within continuous, ultra-high dimensional landscapes. During network training, populations…

Designing molecules that must satisfy multiple, often conflicting objectives is a central challenge in molecular discovery. The enormous size of chemical space and the cost of high-fidelity simulations have driven the development of machine…

Neural networks dominate the modern machine learning landscape, but their training and success still suffer from sensitivity to empirical choices of hyperparameters such as model architecture, loss function, and optimisation algorithm. In…

Genetic algorithms are heuristic optimization techniques inspired by Darwinian evolution, which are characterized by successfully finding robust solutions for optimization problems. Here, we propose a subroutine-based quantum genetic…

A large variety of sophisticated metaheuristic methods have been proposed for photovoltaic parameter extraction. Our aim is not to develop another metaheuristic method but to investigate two practically important yet rarely studied issues:…

Finding the optimal parameter setting (i.e. the optimal population size, the optimal mutation probability, the optimal evolutionary model etc) for an Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) is a difficult task. Instead of evolving only the parameters…
