Foil 23 General Structure of Physical Optimization

From Physical Optimization and Physical Computation CPSP713 Case studies in Computational Science -- Spring Semester 1996. by Geoffrey C. Fox
1 Energy = Real Goal (S d)
    • + (*)
    • + (**)
2 Consider a physical system with this energy function at temperature T
3 Minimize F = free energy = E - TS as T ® 0
4 Use "mean field" approximation to make annealing deterministic
