This book is the first to demonstrate that thisframework is also well suited for the exploitation of heuristicmethods in the solution of such problems, especially those of largescale for which exact optimization approaches can be prohibitivelycostly. The book covers all aspects ranging from the formalpresentation of the Bayesian Approach, to its extension to theBayesian Heuristic Strategy, and its utilization within the informal,interactive Dynamic Visualization strategy. The developed framework isapplied in forecasting, in neural network optimization, and in a largenumber of discrete and continuous optimization problems. Specificapplication areas which are discussed include scheduling andvisualization problems in chemical engineering, manufacturing processcontrol, and epidemiology. Computational results and comparisons witha broad range of test examples are presented. The software requiredfor implementation of the Bayesian Heuristic Approach is included.Although some knowledge of mathematical statistics is necessary inorder to fathom the the | Pindex | Book 1997 |
