EnglishGlobal optimization is a field of mathematical programming dealing with finding global (absolute) minima of multi-dimensional multiextremal functions. Problems of this kind where the objective function is non-differentiable, satisfies the Lipschitz condition with an unknown Lipschitz constant, and is given as a “black-box” are very often encountered in engineering optimization applications. Due to the presence of multiple local minima and the absence of differentiability, traditional optimization techniques using gradients and working with problems having only one minimum cannot be applied in this case. These real-life applied problems are attacked here by employing one of the mostly abstract mathematical objects—space-filling curves. A practical derivative-free deterministic method reducing the dimensionality of the problem by using space-filling curves and working simultaneously with all possible estimates of Lipschitz and Hölder constants is proposed. A smart adaptive balancing of local and global information collected during the search is performed at each iteration. Conditions ensuring convergence of the new method to the global minima are established. Results of numerical experiments on 1000 randomly generated test functions show a clear superiority of the new method w.r.t. the popular method DIRECT and other competitors.
