Abstract: Many existing surrogate-assisted optimization algorithms are limited to designing antennas with continuous variables only. However, numerous challenges emerge when tackling antenna ...

Abstract: Metaheuristics are widely recognized gradient-free solvers to hard problems that do not meet the rigorous mathematical assumptions of conventional solvers. The automated design of ...

Solving complex optimization problems is central to many modern technologies, from logistics and financial modeling to chip ...

In recent years, the frequency of weather-related natural disasters—cyclones, torrential rains, floods—has increased as a consequence of global warming. These disasters cause billions of dollars in ...
