LibOptimization Log

LibOptimization is optimization algorithm library for .NET Framework. This library will probably simplify the optimization using C# and VB.Net and other .NET Framework language.

Implementing optimization algorithm are Steepest Descent Method, Newton Method, Nelder Mead Method (Original ver, Wikipedia ver) ,Hooke and Jeeves of Pattern Search (Direct Search), Real-coded Genetic Algorithm(BLX-alpha and JGG, UNDX and JGG Simplex and JGG, REX and JGG), Particle Swarm Optimization(Basic PSO, LDIW-PSO, CDIW-PSO, CRIW-PSO, AIW-PSO), Differential Evolution(DE/rand/1/bin, DE/rand/2/bin, DE/best/1/bin, DE/best/2/bin), Cuckoo Search(Standard) and Simulated Annealing.

How to use

Typical Use

  1. You inherit "absObjectiveFunction" class and design objective function.
  2. Choose an optimization method and implement code.
  3. Do optimization.
  4. Get result and evaluate.

Sample code

  • Typical use code
'Instantiation optimization class and set objective function.
Dim optimization As New clsOptSteepestDescent(New clsBenchSphere(1))
'Initialize starting value
optimization.Init()
'Do calc
optimization.DoIteration()
'Get result. Check recent error.
If optimization.IsRecentError() = True Then
    Return
Else
    clsUtil.DebugValue(optimization)
End If
  • When you want result every 5 times.
With Nothing
    Dim optimization As New clsOptSteepestDescent(New clsBenchSphere(2))
    optimization.Init()
    While (optimization.DoIteration(5) = False)
clsUtil.DebugValue(optimization)
    End While
    clsUtil.DebugValue(optimization, ai_isOnlyIterationCount:=True)
End With
  • set initial point
Dim optimization As New clsOptSteepestDescent(New clsBenchSphere(2))
optimization.Init(New Double() {-10, 10})
While (optimization.DoIteration(5) = False)
    clsUtil.DebugValue(optimization)
End While
clsUtil.DebugValue(optimization, ai_isOnlyIterationCount:=True)
  • You can use other optimization method(inherit absObjctiveFcuntion).
Dim optimization As New clsOptRealGASPX(New clsBenchRastriginFunction(20))
optimization.Init()
clsUtil.DebugValue(optimization)
While True
    If optimization.DoIteration(10) = True Then
        Exit While
    End If
    clsUtil.DebugValue(optimization, ai_isOutValue:=False)
End While
If optimization.IsRecentError() = True Then
    Return
End If
clsUtil.DebugValue(optimization)
  • Multi point and MultiThread. Multipoint avoids Local minimum by preparing many values.
'prepare many optimization class.
Dim multipointNumber As Integer = 30
Dim listOptimization As New List(Of absOptimization)
For i As Integer = 0 To multipointNumber - 1
    Dim tempOpt As New clsOptNelderMead(New clsBenchAckley(20))
    tempOpt.Init()
    listOptimization.Add(tempOpt)
Next

'using Parallel.ForEach
Dim lockObj As New Object()
Dim best As LibOptimization.absOptimization = Nothing
Threading.Tasks.Parallel.ForEach(listOptimization, Sub(opt As absOptimization)
                                                       opt.DoIteration()
                                                       'Swap best result
                                                       SyncLock lockObj
                                                           If best Is Nothing Then
                                                               best = opt
                                                           ElseIf best.Result.Eval > opt.Result.Eval Then
                                                               best = opt
                                                           End If
                                                       End SyncLock
                                                   End Sub)

'Check Error
If best.IsRecentError() = True Then
    Return
Else
    clsUtil.DebugValue(best)
End If
