Model 1 determines the searching area. We predict the trajectory of floats generated after the disintegration of the plane by using RBF neural network model, and then determine the searching area according to the trajectory. With the pass of time, the searching area will also be constantly moving along the trajectory. Model 2 develops a maritime search plan to achieve the purpose of completing the search in the shortest time. We optimize the searching time and transform the problem into the 0-1 knapsack problem. Solving this problem by improved genetic algorithm, we can get the shortest searching time and the best choice for the search power.展开更多

But up to now, less work has been devoted to solving nonlinear integer programming problems due to the inherent difficulty. This paper manages to transform the general nonlinear integer programming problem into an equivalent' special continuous global minimization problem. Thus any effective global optimization algorithm can be used to solve nonlinear integer programming problems. This result will also promote the research on global optimization. We present an interval Branch-and-Bound algorithm. Numerical experiments show that this approach is efficient. (Author abstract) 11 Refs.展开更多
