Feasibility and dominance rules in the electromagnetism-like algorithm for constrained global optimization

This paper presents the use of a constraint-handling technique, known as feasibility and dominance rules, in a electromagnetismlike (ELM) mechanism for solving constrained global optimization problems. Since the original ELM algorithm is specifically designed for solving bound constrained problems, only the inequality and equality constraints violation together with the objective function value are used to select points and to progress towards feasibility and optimality. Numerical experiments are presented, including a comparison with other methods recently reported in the literature
