Large-Scale Evolutionary Optimization Approach Based on Decision Space Decomposition

Evolutionary Algorithm Based Approach of Envelope Optimization for Large-scale Space

Building envelope optimization always occupies an important place in sustainable building design. This paper selects a large-scale space as research object, which requires more complex and flexible fenestration system. On the premise of complying with some rules, the fenestration is easily managed by adjusting the number and position of small rectangular patches on the grid-based exposed surfac...

A Decomposition-Coordination Approach for Large-Scale Optimization

Decomposition-based evolutionary algorithm for large scale constrained problems

Cooperative Coevolutionary algorithms (CC) have been successful in solving large scale optimization problems. The performance of CC can be improved by decreasing the number of interdependent variables among decomposed subproblems. This is achieved by first identifying dependent variables, and by then grouping them in common subproblems. This approach has potential because so far no grouping tec...

Thevenin Decomposition 1 and Large - Scale Optimization

Thevenin’s theorem, one of the most celebrated results of electric circuit theory, provides a two-parameter characterization of the behavior of an arbitrarily large circuit, as seen from two of its terminals. We interpret the theorem as a sensitivity result in an associated minimum energy/network flow problem, and we abstract its main idea to develop a decomposition method for convex quadratic ...
