Parameter Estimation of Complex Chemical Kinetics with Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategy
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a method for parameter estimation of complex chemical kinetics by an evolution strategy which uses a scheme called covariance matrix adaptation. The advantage of this scheme is that a completely derandomized self-adaptation of mutation distribution can be achieved. The used algorithm utilizes even cumulation to improve the performance. The method was tested on experimental data of ethene pyrolysis and the parameters of two kinetic models depicting the phenomenon were estimated. The models comprised of 37 and 687 reversible reactions respectively. The method successfully estimated the kinetic parameters for both models.

متن کاملTHE CMA EVOLUTION STRATEGY BASED SIZE OPTIMIZATION OF TRUSS STRUCTURES
Evolution Strategies (ES) are a class of Evolutionary Algorithms based on Gaussian mutation and deterministic selection. Gaussian mutation captures pair-wise dependencies between the variables through a covariance matrix. Covariance Matrix Adaptation (CMA) is a method to update this covariance matrix. In this paper, the CMA-ES, which has found many applications in solving continuous optimizatio...
