Creates and configures a genetic algorithm solver for a given problem definition that uses a random restart approach.

Return

An instance of RandomRestartSolver that encapsulates the optimization process and results.

Parameters

problemDefinition

The definition of the optimization problem, including constraints and objectives.

modelBuilder

The model builder interface used to create models for evaluation.

maxNumRestarts

The maximum number of restarts to be performed.

startingPoint

An optional starting point. If provided, the FIRST run of the solver will begin here. All subsequent restarts will begin at purely random, auto-generated coordinates.

populationSize

The number of individuals per generation. Defaults to GeneticAlgorithmSolver.defaultPopulationSize.

selectionOperator

The parent-selection strategy. Defaults to TournamentSelection.

crossoverOperator

The recombination strategy. Defaults to BlendCrossover.

mutationOperator

The mutation strategy. When null (the default), a GaussianMutation for the problem is created.

maxIterations

The maximum number of generations per restart. Defaults to 100.

replicationsPerEvaluation

The number of replications to use during each evaluation to reduce stochastic noise.

solutionCache

Specifies if the evaluator uses a solution cache. By default, this is MemorySolutionCache.

simulationRunCache

Specifies if the simulation oracle will use a SimulationRunCache. The default is null (no cache).

experimentRunParameters

the run parameters to apply to the model during the building process

streamNum

the random number stream number for the outer random-restart driver; 0 (the default) means the next available stream

streamProvider

the provider of random number streams shared by the inner genetic algorithm solver and the outer driver; defaults to a fresh RNStreamProvider
