Properties
Represents the default number of replications to be performed during an evaluation.
Many algorithms compare solutions. This factor serves as the default precision between two solutions such that if the solutions are within this value they are considered equal. The default is 0.001
Functions
Creates and configures a Bayesian optimization (BO) solver for a given problem definition.
Creates and configures a cross-entropy optimization algorithm for a given problem definition.
Creates and configures a genetic algorithm solver for a given problem definition.
Creates and configures an Industrial Strength COMPASS (ISC) solver for a given problem definition. ISC is a three-phase discrete-optimization-via-simulation method: a global Niching-GA exploration phase, a local COMPASS phase per niche, and a clean-up ranking-and-selection phase.
Creates and configures a global-best particle swarm optimization (PSO) solver for a given problem definition.
Creates and configures a Bayesian optimization solver for a given problem definition that uses a random restart approach.
Creates and configures a cross-entropy optimization algorithm for a given problem definition that uses a random restart approach.
Creates and configures a genetic algorithm solver for a given problem definition that uses a random restart approach.
Creates and configures an Industrial Strength COMPASS (ISC) solver that uses a random restart approach, mirroring the other algorithms' random-restart factories.
Creates and configures a global-best particle swarm optimization solver for a given problem definition that uses a random restart approach.
Creates and configures an R-SPLINE optimization algorithm for a given problem definition that uses a random restart approach.
Creates a Random Restart solver that utilizes Simulated Annealing for its inner optimization phases.
Creates and configures a simulated annealing optimization algorithm for a given problem definition.
Creates and configures an R-SPLINE optimization algorithm for a given problem definition.
Creates a configured Simulated Annealing solver ready for execution.
Creates and configures a stochastic hill climber to solve the given problem definition using a simulation-based evaluation approach. The default configuration has the evaluator configured to use a solution cache.
