gen.design.pars {odr} | R Documentation |
Generate optimal design parameters using ant colony optimization
Description
This function can generate a set of optimal design parameters based on given distributions of the rank of optimization target (or budget).
Usage
gen.design.pars(
dist.mean,
dist.rank,
n.of.ants,
nl,
q = 1e-04,
n.of.archive = 100,
xi = 0.5
)
Arguments
dist.mean |
List of means - coordinates |
dist.rank |
Rank of the archived values of objective function |
n.of.ants |
Number of ants used in each iteration after the initialization of power analysis for calculating required budget, default value is 10. |
nl |
Neighborhood of the search area |
q |
Locality of the search (0,1), default is 0.0001. |
n.of.archive |
Size of the solution archive, default is 100. |
xi |
Convergence pressure (0, Inf), suggested: (0, 1), default is 0.5. |
Value
Generated optimal design parameter value(s) (i.e., a matrix with n.of.ants rows and n.of.design.pars columns)
