Solving semi-infinite programming problems using filter method. In 8th EUROPT Workshop on Advances in Continuous Optimization.http://hdl.handle.net/10198/4794Semi-infinite programming problems can be efficiently solved by reduction type methods. Here, we present a new global reduction method for Semi-infinite programming, where the multi-local optimization is carried out with a stretched simulated annealing algorithm, the reduced problem is approximately solved by a primal-dual interior point method combined with a three-dimensional filter line search strategy, and the global convergence is promoted through a two-dimensional filter line search. Numerical experiments with a set of well-known problems are shown.engSemi-infinite programmingNonlinear optimizationconference object
