Detailed Description

A version of Dakota::Optimizer for instantiation of John Eddy's Genetic Algorithms (JEGA).

This class encapsulates the necessary functionality for creating and properly initializing the JEGA algorithms (MOGA and SOGA).

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ JEGAOptimizer()

JEGAOptimizer ( ProblemDescDB problem_db,
Model model 
)

Constructs a JEGAOptimizer class object.

This method does some of the initialization work for the algorithm. In particular, it initialized the JEGA core.

Parameters
problem_dbThe Dakota::ProblemDescDB with information on how the algorithm controls should be set.
modelThe Dakota::Model that will be used by this optimizer for problem information, etc.

References JEGAOptimizer::_theEvalCreator, ProblemDescDB::get_int(), ProblemDescDB::get_short(), Iterator::iteratedModel, JEGAOptimizer::LoadTheParameterDatabase(), Iterator::maxEvalConcurrency, Iterator::methodName, Iterator::numFinalSolutions, and Iterator::probDescDB.

Member Function Documentation

◆ LoadDakotaResponses()

void LoadDakotaResponses ( const JEGA::Utilities::Design &  from,
Dakota::Variables vars,
Dakota::Response resp 
) const
protected

Loads the JEGA-style Design class into equivalent Dakota-style Variables and Response objects.

This version is meant for the case where a Variables and a Response object exist and just need to be loaded.

Parameters
fromThe JEGA Design class object from which to extract the variable and response information for Dakota.
varsThe Dakota::Variables object into which to load the design variable values of from.
respThe Dakota::Response object into which to load the objective function and constraint values of from.

References Variables::continuous_variables(), Variables::discrete_int_variables(), Variables::discrete_real_variables(), Variables::discrete_string_variable(), Response::function_values(), Response::num_functions(), and Dakota::set_index_to_value().

◆ LoadTheParameterDatabase()

void LoadTheParameterDatabase ( )
protected

Reads information out of the known Dakota::ProblemDescDB and puts it into the current parameter database.

This should be called from the JEGAOptimizer constructor since it is the only time when the problem description database is certain to be configured to supply data for this optimizer.

Referenced by JEGAOptimizer::JEGAOptimizer().

◆ LoadAlgorithmConfig()

void LoadAlgorithmConfig ( JEGA::FrontEnd::AlgorithmConfig &  aConfig)
protected

Completely initializes the supplied algorithm configuration.

This loads the supplied configuration object with appropriate data retrieved from the parameter database.

Parameters
aConfigThe algorithm configuration object to load.

◆ LoadProblemConfig()

void LoadProblemConfig ( JEGA::FrontEnd::ProblemConfig &  pConfig)
protected

Completely initializes the supplied problem configuration.

This loads the fresh configuration object using the LoadTheDesignVariables, LoadTheObjectiveFunctions, and LoadTheConstraints methods.

Parameters
pConfigThe problem configuration object to load.

◆ LoadTheDesignVariables()

void LoadTheDesignVariables ( JEGA::FrontEnd::ProblemConfig &  pConfig)
protected

Adds DesignVariableInfo objects into the problem configuration object.

This retrieves design variable information from the ParameterDatabase and creates DesignVariableInfo's from it.

Parameters
pConfigThe problem configuration object to load.

◆ LoadTheObjectiveFunctions()

void LoadTheObjectiveFunctions ( JEGA::FrontEnd::ProblemConfig &  pConfig)
protected

Adds ObjectiveFunctionInfo objects into the problem configuration object.

This retrieves objective function information from the ParameterDatabase and creates ObjectiveFunctionInfo's from it.

Parameters
pConfigThe problem configuration object to load.

◆ LoadTheConstraints()

void LoadTheConstraints ( JEGA::FrontEnd::ProblemConfig &  pConfig)
protected

Adds ConstraintInfo objects into the problem configuration object.

This retrieves constraint function information from the ParameterDatabase and creates ConstraintInfo's from it.

Parameters
pConfigThe problem configuration object to load.

References Dakota::asstring(), and Dakota::copy_row_vector().

◆ GetBestSolutions()

void GetBestSolutions ( const JEGA::Utilities::DesignOFSortSet &  from,
const JEGA::Algorithms::GeneticAlgorithm &  theGA,
std::multimap< RealRealPair, JEGA::Utilities::Design * > &  designSortMap 
)
protected

Returns up to _numBest designs sorted by DAKOTA's fitness (L2 constraint violation, then utopia or objective), taking into account the algorithm type. The front of the returned map can be viewed as a single "best".

Parameters
fromThe full set of designs returned by the solver.
theGAThe GA used to generate this set; needed for its weights in the SO case, provided to both for consistency
designSortMapMap of best solutions with key pair<constraintViolation, fitness>

eventually this functionality must be moved into a separate post-processing application for MO datasets.

◆ GetBestMOSolutions()

void GetBestMOSolutions ( const JEGA::Utilities::DesignOFSortSet &  from,
const JEGA::Algorithms::GeneticAlgorithm &  theGA,
std::multimap< RealRealPair, JEGA::Utilities::Design * > &  designSortMap 
)
protected

Retreive the best Designs from a set of solutions assuming that they are generated by a multi objective algorithm.

eventually this functionality must be moved into a separate post-processing application for MO datasets.

◆ GetBestSOSolutions()

void GetBestSOSolutions ( const JEGA::Utilities::DesignOFSortSet &  from,
const JEGA::Algorithms::GeneticAlgorithm &  theGA,
std::multimap< RealRealPair, JEGA::Utilities::Design * > &  designSortMap 
)
protected

Retreive the best Designs from a set of solutions assuming that they are generated by a single objective algorithm.

eventually this functionality must be moved into a separate post-processing application for MO datasets.

References Dakota::abort_handler().

◆ ToDoubleMatrix()

JEGA::DoubleMatrix ToDoubleMatrix ( const VariablesArray &  variables) const
protected

Converts the items in a VariablesArray into a DoubleMatrix whereby the items in the matrix are the design variables.

The matrix will not contain responses but when being used by Dakota, this doesn't matter. JEGA will attempt to re-evaluate these points but Dakota will recognize that they do not require re-evaluation and thus it will be a cheap operation.

Parameters
variablesThe array of DakotaVariables objects to use as the contents of the returned matrix.
Returns
The matrix created using the supplied VariablesArray.

◆ core_run()

void core_run ( )
virtual

Performs the iterations to determine the optimal set of solutions.

Override of pure virtual method in Optimizer base class.

The extraction of parameter values actually occurs in this method when the JEGA::FrontEnd::Driver::ExecuteAlgorithm is called. Also the loading of the problem and algorithm configurations occurs in this method. That way, if it is called more than once and the algorithm or problem has changed, it will be accounted for.

Reimplemented from Iterator.

References JEGAOptimizer::Driver::DestroyAlgorithm(), JEGAOptimizer::Driver::ExtractAllData(), and JEGAOptimizer::Driver::PerformIterations().

◆ accepts_multiple_points()

bool accepts_multiple_points ( ) const
virtual

Overridden to return true since JEGA algorithms can accept multiple initial points.

Returns
true, always.

Reimplemented from Iterator.

◆ returns_multiple_points()

bool returns_multiple_points ( ) const
virtual

Overridden to return true since JEGA algorithms can return multiple final points.

Returns
true, always.

Reimplemented from Iterator.

◆ initial_points() [1/2]

void initial_points ( const VariablesArray &  pts)
virtual

Overridden to assign the _initPts member variable to the passed in collection of Dakota::Variables.

Parameters
ptsThe array of initial points for the JEGA algorithm created and run by this JEGAOptimizer.

Reimplemented from Iterator.

◆ initial_points() [2/2]

const VariablesArray & initial_points ( ) const
virtual

Overridden to return the collection of initial points for the JEGA algorithm created and run by this JEGAOptimizer.

Returns
The collection of initial points for the JEGA algorithm created and run by this JEGAOptimizer.

Reimplemented from Iterator.

Member Data Documentation

◆ _initPts

VariablesArray _initPts
private

An array of initial points to use as an initial population.

This member is here to help support the use of JEGA algorithms in Dakota strategies. If this array is populated, then whatever initializer is specified will be ignored and the DoubleMatrix initializer will be used instead on a matrix created from the data in this array.
