In this paper, we propose a probabilistic tabu search strategy for function optimization. It is composed of two procedures, one is Basic search procedure that plays a role in local search, and the other is Restarting procedure that enables to diversify search region. In basic search procedure, we use Belief space and Near region to create neighbors. Belief space is made of high-rank neighbors to effectively restrict searching space, so it can improve searching time and local or global searching capability. When a solution is converged in a local area, Restarting procedure works to search other regions. In this time, we use Probabilistic Tabu Strategy(PTS) to adjust parameters such as a reducing rate, initial searching region etc., which makes enhance the performance of searching ability in various problems. In order to show the usefulness of the proposed method, the PTS is applied to the minimization problems such as De Jong functions, Ackley function, and Griewank functions etc., the results are compared with those of GA or EP.

A heuristic with multi-byte suffix matching plays an important role in real pattern matching algorithms. By skipping many characters at a time in the process of comparing a given pattern with the text, the pattern matching algorithm based on a heuristic with multi-byte suffix matching shows a faster average search time than algorithms based on deterministic finite automata. Based on various experimental results and simulations, the previous works show that the pattern matching algorithms with multi-byte suffix matching performs well. However, there have been limited studies on the mathematical model for analyzing the performance in a standard manner. In this paper, we propose a new probabilistic model, which evaluates the performance of a heuristic with multi-byte suffix matching in an average-case search. When the theoretical analysis results and experimental results were compared, the proposed probabilistic model was found to be sufficient for evaluating the performance of a heuristic with suffix matching in the real pattern matching algorithms.

In this paper, we propose a Probabilistic Tabu Search(PTS) method for hydro-thermal scheduling. Hydro scheduling has many constraints and very difficult to solve the optical schedule because it has many local minima. To solve the problem effectively, the proposed method uses two procedures, one is Tabu search procedure that plays a role in local search, and the other is Restarting procedure that enables to diversify its search region. To adjust Parameters such as a reducing rate and initial searching region, search strategy is selected according to its probability after restarting procedure. Dynamic decoding method was also used to restrict a search region and to handle water balance constraints. In order to show the usefulness of the proposed method, the PTS is applied on two cases which have independent or dependent hydro plants and compared to those of other method. The simulation results show it is very efficient and useful algorithm to solve the hydro-thermal scheduling problem.

본 논문은 벡터모델과 확률모델의 성능 비교에 관한 연구이다. 벡터모델로써는 잠재적 의미를 적용한 검색 결과를 찾기 위해 사용되는 LSI 모델을 이용하였다. 확률모델로써는 현재 상용화 단계에 있는 콘도르 정보검색 시스템을 적용하였다. 각 모델 시스템의 검색 성능 비교를 위한 실험은 사용자가 입력한 원래 질의어에 관한 검색 결과를 바탕으로 성능을 비교한 후에, 사전적 의미를 적용한 확장 질의어에 대한 검색 결과를 추가하여 비교하였다. 본 연구에서는 입력된 질의어와 관련된 용어를 추가하여 검색하였을 경우, 확률모델에 비해 벡터모델에서 성능이 대부분의 질의어에 대해서 향상됨을 보인다.

Probabilistic structural design optimization, which is characterized by the so-called probabilistic. constraints which introduce permissible probability of violation, is preferred to deterministic design optimization since unpredictable inherent uncertainties and randomness in structural and environmental properties are to be taken quantitatively into account by probabilistic design optimization. In this paper, the well-known reliability index based MPFP(Most Probable Failure Point) search approach and the newly introduced target performance measure based MPTP(Minimum Performance Target Point) search approach are summarized and compared. The present comparison focuses on the number of iterations required for the estimation of probabilistic constraints and a technique for improvement which removes exhaustive iterations is presented as well. A 10 bar truss problem is examined for this.

The Probabilistic Traveling Salesman Problem (PTSP) is an important topic in the study of traveling salesman problem and stochastic routing problem. The goal of PTSP is to find a priori tour visiting all customers with a minimum expected length, which simply skips customers not requiring a visit in the tour. There are many existing researches for the homogeneous version of the problem, where all customers have an identical visiting probability. Otherwise, the researches for the heterogeneous version of the problem are insufficient and most of them have focused on search base algorithms. In this paper, we propose a simple construction algorithm to solve the heterogeneous PTSP. The Minimum Expected Length Insertion (MELI) algorithm is a construction algorithm and consists of processes to decide a sequence of visiting customers by inserting the one, with the minimum expected length between two customers already in the sequence. Compared with optimal solutions, the MELI algorithm generates better solutions when the average probability is low and the customers have different visiting probabilities. We also suggest a local search method which improves the initial solution generated by the MELI algorithm.

There are a lot of uncertainties in the severe accident phenomena and scenarios in nuclear power plants (NPPs) and one of the major issues for severe accident management is the reduction of these uncertainties. The severe accident management aid system using Probabilistic Safety Assessments (PSA) technology is developed for the management staff in order to reduce the uncertainties. The developed system includes the graphical display for plant and equipment status, previous research results by a knowledge-base technique, and the expected plant behavior using PSA. The plant model used in this paper is oriented to identify plant response and vulnerabilities via analyzing the quantified results, and to set up a framework for an accident management program based on these analysis results. Therefore the developed system may playa central role of information source for decision-making for severe accident management, and will be used as a training tool for severe accident management.

국지적 탐색 알고리즘들은 최적해를 찾기 위해서 이웃해를 생성하여 평가한 뒤에 좋은 해로 이동하는 과정을 반복한다. 본 논문에서는 생성된 이웃해를 원래의 목적함수로 평가하기 전에 간단한 예비 평가 휴리스틱을 이용하여 미리 평가함으로써, 좋지 않아 보이는 이웃해를 확률적으로 여과할 수 있는 기법을 소개한다. 이 확률적 여과 기법은 결국에 버려질 이웃해를 엄밀하게 평가하는데 낭비되는 시간을 절약하고, 이 시간 동안 보다 좋아 보이는 이웃해를 더 많이 탐색할 수 있게 함으로써 탐색 효율을 높이는 기법이다. 대규모의 실세계 최적화 문제인 교통망에서의 교통 신호 최적화 문제와 작업 일정 계획에서의 부하평준화 문제를 대상으로 한 실험에서 확률적 여과를 적용한 경우가 적용하지 않은 경우에 비해 주어진 탐색시간 동안 더 좋은 질의 최적해를 얻을 수 있는 것으로 확인되었다.
