  • A comparison of single runs versus multistart for simulated annealing and threshold accepting

    Creator:
    Crews, Matthew
    Abstract:
    Simulated Annealing and Threshold Accepting are two stochastic search algorithms that have been successfully used on a variety of complex and difficult problem sets. Due to their stochastic nature they are not guaranteed to produce the same result for each run. This means that these techniques actually produce a distribution...

  • Optimal Experimental System Design

    Creator:
    Mohseni, Seyed Alireza
    Abstract:
    Physical experimentation in various scientific and engineering areas continues to be a useful and often necessary approach that is applied in research, development, and for general problem solving. The experimental design process however, is iterative and often involves trial and error. Alternative designs are proposed and evaluated on cost and...
