DESCRIPTION:This event is jointly sponsored by Finland Section Chapter CAS0
 4\, Nanjing Section Chapter CH11261\, University of Oulu\, and Hong Kong P
 olytechnic University.\n\nDue to increased complexity of the systems\, cos
 t reduction and detail modeling of the systems\, the requirements of optim
 ization have been increased. The conventional methods\, which guarantee to
  provide the optimal solution\, fail to solve many practical problems due 
 to several requirements of these methods. The most familiar conventional o
 ptimization techniques fall in two categories viz. calculus based method a
 nd enumerative schemes. Though well developed\, these techniques possess s
 ignificant drawbacks. Calculus based optimization generally relies on cont
 inuity assumptions and existence of derivatives. Enumerative techniques re
 ly on special convergence properties and auxiliary function evaluation. Mo
 reover\, these optimizations are generally single path search and stuck wi
 th the local optima.\n\nIntelligent based optimization methods such as gen
 etic algorithm (GA)\, particle warm optimization (PSO)\, bacteria foraging
 \, ant colony\, neural networks\, etc. are multi-path search and provide s
 olution near to the global optima. They do not require derivatives of obje
 ctive function and constraints. This presentation briefly covers some of t
 he important techniques of optimization along with scope and future challe
 nges.\n\nSpeaker(s): S. N. Singh\, \n\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee
