Abstract
A procedure to significantly reduce the computational cost of the Simu lated Annealing optimization algorithm coupled with analysis methods i s proposed. The chosen approach relies on the application of the Simul ated Annealing method to an analytical approximation of the true objec tive function, expressed in the form of a multiquadric expansion. The algorithm is fully described, its potential advantages are pointed out and some test cases showing the effectivness of the implemented strat egy are reported and discussed.
