Adaptive direct search algorithms with relaxable and quantifiable constraints
Charles Audet, Théo Denorme, Youssef Diouane +2
This work introduces ADS-PB, an extension of the Adaptive Direct Search (ADS) framework for solving constrained blackbox optimization problems. With ADS, iterates progress without…
Benchmarking Bilevel Derivative-Free Optimization Algorithms
Charles Audet, Valentin Dijon, Youssef Diouane
Bilevel optimization involves an upper-level and a lower-level decision maker. The lower-level optimization problem is nested within the constraints of the upper-level one. A point…
Surrogate-based categorical neighborhoods for mixed-variable blackbox optimization
Charles Audet, Youssef Diouane, Edward Hallé-Hannan +2
In simulation-based engineering, design choices are often obtained following the optimization of complex blackbox models. These models frequently involve mixed-variable domains wit…
A penalty-interior point method combined with MADS for equality and inequality constrained optimization
Charles Audet, Andrea Brilli, Youssef Diouane +3
This work introduces MADS-PIP, an efficient framework that integrates a penalty-interior point strategy into the mesh adaptive direct search (MADS) algorithm for solving nonsmooth…
Multi-fidelity constraints in blackbox optimization
Stéphane Alarie, Charles Audet, Miguel Diago +2
This work studies constrained blackbox optimization problems that cannot be solved in reasonable time due to prohibitive computational costs. This challenge is especially prevalent…
