Purpose
Solve general constrained mixed-integer global black-box optimization problems with costly objective functions.
The optimization problem is of the following form
where ; ; the linear constraints are defined by , ; and the nonlinear constraints are defined by . The variables are restricted to be integers, where is an index subset of possibly empty. It is assumed that the function is continuous with respect to all variables, even if there is a demand that some variables only take integer values. Otherwise it would not make sense to do the surrogate modeling of used by all CGO solvers.
f (x) is assumed to be a costly function while c(x) is assumed to be cheaply computed. Any costly constraints can be treated by adding penalty terms to the objective function in the following way:
where weighting parameters wj have been added. The user then returns p(x) instead of f (x) to the CGO solver.
Calling Syntax
Result = rbfSolve(Prob,varargin) Result = tomRun('rbfSolve', Prob);

- Special RBF algorithm parameters in Prob.CGO - | |||||||||||||||
rbfType | Selects type of radial basis function
| ||||||||||||||
infStep | If =1, add search step with target value -inffirst in cycle. Default 0. Always =1 for the case fStartRule == 3 | ||||||||||||||
fStarRule | Global-Local search strategy. N = cycle length. Define min_sn as the global minimum on surface.
| ||||||||||||||
DeltaRule | 1 = Skip large f(x) when computing f(x) interval Delta. 0 = Use all points. If objType > 0, default DeltaRule = 0, otherwise default is 1. | ||||||||||||||
AddSurfMin | Add up to AddSurfMin interior local minima on RBF surface as search points, based on estimated Lipschitz constants. AddSurfMin=0 implies no additional minimum added (Default AddSurfMin==1). Only possible if globalSolver = multiMin or glcDirect. Test for additional minimum in local step (modN == N) modN = -2,-3,-4,... are iteration steps with these search points. | ||||||||||||||
TargetMin | Which minimum of several to pick in target value problem:
Default is TargetMin = 3. | ||||||||||||||
eps_sn | Relative tolerance used to test if the minimum of surface, min_sn, is sufficiently lower than the best point (fMin) found. Default is eps_sn = 10-7. |

Description
rbfSolve implements the Radial Basis Function (RBF) algorithm based on the work by Gutmann. The RBF method is enhanced to handle linear equality and inequality constraints, and nonlinear equality and inequality constraints, as well as mixed-integer problems.
A response surface based on radial basis functions is fitted to a collection of sampled points. The algorithm then balances between minimizing the fitted function and adding new points to the set.
