Abstract
A novel method for evolutionary optimization, called integrated radiation optimization (IRO), is proposed for solving nonlinear multidimensional optimization problems. Many modern optimization techniques explore the search space by sharing information they have found. In this study, the concept of gravitational radiation in Einstein's theory of general relativity is utilized as a fundamental theory for searching optimal solution in the search space. The idea of developing the algorithm and its detailed procedures are introduced. This work applied the proposed IRO to find the minimum value of a static polynomial function, and some applications that are known to be difficult. The preliminary experimental results show that the performance of the proposed IRO is promising, and IRO shows great performance in solving other NP-hard search and optimization problems. © 2007 IEEE.
