Resumen de Solving nonlinearly constrained global optimization problem via an auxiliary function method
This paper considers the nonlinearly constrained continuous global minimization problem. Based on the idea of the penalty function method, an auxiliary function, which has approximately the same global minimizers as the original problem, is constructed. An algorithm is developed to minimize the auxiliary function to find an approximate constrained global minimizer of the constrained global minimization problem. The algorithm can escape from the previously converged local minimizers, and can converge to an approximate global minimizer of the problem asymptotically with probability one. Numerical experiments show that it is better than some other well known recent methods for constrained global minimization problems.
