A simulated annealing approach to the solution of minlp problems

An algorithm (M-SIMPSA) suitable for the optimization of mixed integer non-linear programming (MINLP) problems is presented. A recently proposed continuous non-linear solver (SIMPSA) is used to update the continuous parameters, and the Metropolis algorithm is used to update the complete solution vec...
