ADORE

Optimization in Finite Spaces,erhaps unfamiliar to many students of heuristic-driven optimization, and hence this chapter provides a concrete grounding of the ideas motivating the more abstract formulation to follow in Chapters 6, 8 and 9.

chance

Performance Analysis,n methods may outperform the methods being interpolated. These facts are demonstrated experimentally in Chapter 11. Further, the categories of performance criteria described in this chapter make it possible to identify the conditions under which No Free Lunch theorems hold in infinite-dimensional spaces, to be undertaken in Chapter 12.

Search and Optimization in Topological Spaces,te-dimensional; they can vary infinitely in infinitely many aspects. Finite analysis, and even real analysis, does not suffice to study such spaces. Functional analysis is required, which is presently built on the foundation of general topology to supply meaning for terms such as continuity and convergence.

DEMN

Continuity of Search Generators, with this chapter, analytic tools will now be developed to address these larger question of performance. This chapter focuses on continuity, which was defined in Chapter 5 as a topological concept. Continuity considers the question of whether it is reasonable to assume that the outputs of a function will be similar when the inputs are similar.

TRACE

Generating the Optimization Process,e of the totality of decisions made by an optimization method over the course of time. Therefore, the search generators analyzed in the prior chapters must be connected to a method for generating complete history traces over the entire temporal index set.
