This work presents a filled function method based on the filter technique for global optimization. Filled function method is one of the effective methods for nonlinear global optimization, since it can effectively find a better minimizer. Filter technique is applied to local optimization methods for its excellent numerical results. In order to optimize the filled function method, the filter method is employed for global optimizations in this method. A new filled function is proposed first, andโ€ฆย

Nonlinear programming without a penalty function

The aim of the present work is to promote global convergence without the need to use a penalty function, so a new concept of a โ€œfilterโ€ is introduced which allows a step to be accepted if it reduces either the objective function or the constraint violation function.
