... algorithm. We discuss the relationships between the combinations of variables generated by the complementary problem of IPS and the minimal sets of Balas and Padberg (1975). We present the conditions to be added to the complementary problems to obtain combinations of columns that permit us to move f ...

... algorithms [21] have solved many variations of the pole balance problem. A double CMAC network [22] with one trained for generality and the other trained for accuracy near the target was also applied to the double pole balance problem. The neuroevolutionary method Enforced Subpopulations (ESP) [23] ...

Guided Local Search Joins the Elite in Discrete Optimisation 1
... Due to their combinatorial explosion nature, many real life constraint optimisation problems are hard to solve using complete methods such as branch & bound [Hall 1971, Reingold et. al. 1977]. One way to contain the combinatorial explosion problem is to sacrifice completeness. Some of the best known ...

... end at point A. However, the true minimum is at point B (here the difference in losses between A and B happens to be small; had point D been reached, the process would stop in D and the losses would be 20 MW compared with 12.9 MW in B). Functional constraints are difficult to handle; the method can ...

A Survey of Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes

It will be shown that such uncertainty can often have surprising consequences on the structure of optimal decision rules. Partially obser ...
