A new heuristic optimization algorithm is presented based on an analogy with the physical phenomenon of a projectile launched in a conformational space under the influence of a gravitational force. Its implementation simplicity and the option to enhance it with local search methods make it ideal for the optimization of non-linear systems of equations. The … Read more
This article explains, again, why radius of stability models, such as info-gap’s robustness model, are models of local robustness and why they are therefore unsuitable for the treatment of severe uncertainty.
