Kurzbeschreibung
Solving Complex Problems addresses real problems and the modern optimization techniques used to solve them. Thorough examples illustrate the applications themselves, as well as the actual performance of the algorithms. Application areas include computer science, engineering, transportation, telecommunications, and bioinformatics, making the book especially useful to practitioners in those areas.
Real-world problems and modern optimization techniques to solve them
Here, a team of international experts brings together core ideas for solving complex problems in optimization across a wide variety of real-world settings, including computer science, engineering, transportation, telecommunications, and bioinformatics.
Part One--covers methodologies for complex problem solving including genetic programming, neural networks, genetic algorithms, hybrid evolutionary algorithms, and more.
Part Two--delves into applications including DNA sequencing and reconstruction, location of antennae in telecommunication networks, metaheuristics, FPGAs, problems arising in telecommunication networks, image processing, time series prediction, and more.
All chapters contain examples that illustrate the applications themselves as well as the actual performance of the algorithms.?Optimization Techniques for Solving Complex Problems is a valuable resource for practitioners and researchers who work with optimization in real-world settings.
