Matrix Norms

Optimization problems involving eigenvalues arise in many different mathematical disciplines. This article is divided into two parts. Part I gives a historical account of the development of the field. We discuss various applications that have been especially influential, from structural analysis to combinatorial optimization, and we survey algorithmic developments, including the recent advance of interior-point methods for a specific problem class: semidefinite programming. In Part II we primarily address optimization of convex functions of eigenvalues of symmetric matrices subject to linear constraints. We derive a fairly complete mathematical theory, some of it classical and some of it new. Using the elegant language of conjugate duality theory, we highlight the parallels between the analysis of invariant matrix norms and weakly invariant convex matrix functions. We then restrict our attention further to linear and semidefinite programming, emphasizing the parallel duality theory and comparing primal-dual interior-point methods for the two problem classes. The final section presents some apparently new variational results about eigenvalues of nonsymmetric matrices, unifying known characterizations of the spectral abscissa (related to Lyapunov theory) and the spectral radius (as an infimum of matrix norms).

Different Characteristics

Optimization is a process to search the most suitable solution for a problem within an acceptable time interval. The algorithms that solve the optimization problems are called as optimization algorithms. In the literature, there are many optimization algorithms with different characteristics. The optimization algorithms can exhibit different behaviors depending on the size, characteristics and complexity of the optimization problem. In this study, six well-known population based optimization algorithms (artificial algae algorithm - AAA, artificial bee colony algorithm - ABC, differential evolution algorithm - DE, genetic algorithm - GA, gravitational search algorithm - GSA and particle swarm optimization - PSO) were used. These six algorithms were performed on the CEC’17 test functions. According to the experimental results, the algorithms were compared and performances of the algorithms were evaluated.

The shortest path problem is one of the optimization problems where the optimization value is a distance. In general, solving the problem of the shortest route search can be done using two methods, namely conventional methods and heuristic methods. The Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) is the one of the optimization algorithm based on heuristic method. ACO is adopted from the behavior of ant colonies which naturally able to find the shortest route on the way from the nest to the food sources. In this study, ACO is used to determine the shortest route from Bumi Senyiur Hotel (origin point) to East Kalimantan Governor's Office (destination point). The selection of the origin and destination points is based on a large number of possible major roads connecting the two points. The data source used is the base map of Samarinda City which is cropped on certain coordinates by using Google Earth app which covers the origin and destination points selected. The data pre-processing is performed on the base map image of the acquisition results to obtain its numerical data. ACO is implemented on the data to obtain the shortest path from the origin and destination point that has been determined. From the study results obtained that the number of ants that have been used has an effect on the increase of possible solutions to optimal. The number of tours effect on the number of pheromones that are left on each edge passed ant. With the global pheromone update on each tour then there is a possibility that the path that has passed the ant will run out of pheromone at the end of the tour. This causes the possibility of inconsistent results when using the number of ants smaller than the number of tours.
