Simulated Annealing Heuristics Sample Clauses

Simulated Annealing Heuristics. ‌ Simulated annealing heuristics are based on the annealing process found in metallurgy. Oxford Learner’s Dictionary defines this process as ‘heating metal or glass and allowing it to cool slowly, in order to make it stronger or softer ’8. Xxxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxx, and Xxxxxx (1983) simulated this process to be used as an optimisation algorithm. The first step consists of ‘melting’ the system to be optimised at a high temperature. Then, the temperature is slowly lowered until the system ‘freezes’ and no more changes occur. The temperature should only adapt when the systems reaches a steady state. One important feature of simulated annealing heuristics is that local optima can always be escaped at nonzero temperatures (Xxxxxxxxxxx et al., 1983). In the following sections two relevant simulated algorithms are discussed.
